I would certainly like to visit Fatima's Shrine to Mary.  I could also see your big citrus collection.
Of course you can! It will be a pleasure... any time!   ;D

Persian lime is a fast growing tree.  Your tree should do fine.

And always very productive. Best limes for sure as I got rid of my mexican lime tree. These are bigger, juicier and way more flavorful IMHO.

I just got rid of my key limes also.  Bearss/Persian is clearly the way to go.

I wonder why UCR list NZ Lemonade tree with the sweet limes.  The parentage is unknown.  I would think the tree would be listed as a sweet lemon.  I have a producing NZL tree, and can attest the fruit is very nice tasty.
