Kieffer Lime is a compact, aromatic citrus known for its distinctively bumpy green fruit and highly fragrant, double‑lobed leaves used in Thai and Southeast Asian cuisine. Plants typically reach 6–10 ft tall, forming a dense, bushy habit. It prefers full sun, well‑drained soil, and regular watering. Excellent for edible gardens, patio containers, and chefs who want fresh, authentic flavor straight from the plant.
Citrus hystrix
Native to Southeast Asia, especially Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia, and Laos, where it grows in warm, humid tropical climates and is a staple in traditional cooking and herbal medicine.
Best suited for USDA Zones 9–11. Sensitive to frost; leaves may drop in cold snaps, but plants recover quickly in warm weather. In cooler climates, it thrives in containers and can be overwintered indoors or in a greenhouse.
