Nope those are Limes~~! I guess I will be staking up that branch as it  is not yet strong enough to support all of those fruits.

Nice pic Raye.  I wouldn't have known what they were.  I was thinking that if you squished and fermented 'em ...   ;D

Wow, that is a nice picture.

You can see the limes in all stages of development.

Raye,

Is that a normal amount of limes that are on the end of a branch? Do you thin them out?

I have other branchs on this same tree that have about that many too. I'm not going to thin them out. I will stake the branchs. I soak the tree top to bottom with a mixed of compost tea, fish and seaweed extracts weekly. I also soak the root system. Every other month I mix in enhanced compost at the base of the tree. I have several trees that put out that much.  However this is my first lime tree.

Now you need a coconut nut tree Raye. Then you can "Put the lime in the Coconut and shake it all up" :D ;D ;D

 ;D ;D ;D 10.5

I would have never guessed what that was in the picture. I imagined limes growing like apples and plums here. One here and there never a cluster like that. Must be the great care you take with your garden.
