Rangpur Lime

Rangpur lime is actually a mandarin-lime hybrid (not a true lime) prized for its mandarin orange appearance, intensely sour juice, and significantly greater cold-hardiness than Key or Persian limes, making it a practical choice for zone 8 citrus gardens and container culture. It is self-fertile, productive as a single tree, and bears fruit nearly year-round in warm climates; fruit ripens to a deep orange-red color similar to a tangerine. Use the juice as a direct substitute for regular lime juice in cocktails, marinades, and curries — it is slightly more complex and aromatic. Harvest when the fruit has turned fully orange-red and yields to gentle pressure; fruit can be held on the tree for several weeks after ripening without significant quality loss. Спосіб посадки: Висадка розсади Відстань між рослинами: 96–180 дюймів Висота: 72–180 дюймів Дні до схожості: null–null Температура ґрунту для схожості: -18–-18°C
