Topic: Kaffir lime


  
 IN THE ARBORETUM TODAY
Kaffir lime is a small tree that grows from 10 to 15 feet tall.
The leaves are very distinctive, with a lower wing nearly as big as the actual blade.
Cultivation of this plant in Asia has probably been done for such a long time that their earliest history is quite obscure.

 Growing kaffir lime (Citrus hystrix) from seed? - UBC Botanical Garden Forums
I bought four limes last winter and planted all seeds, weak or not in a seed tray sitting on a heating pad and under grow lamps, with a cover to keep them moist.
I successfully germinated a kaffir lime from a seed I took from a fruit (also from granville island) but when I moved it to a lower shelf in my grow lights it died.
I found this document on growing kaffir lime from seed.

 Kaffir lime: with Jackie French » ABC Canberra
Our kaffir lime is planted on a steep slope though, so frost drains away from it and it warms up quickly.
Kaffir limes are smallish trees, especially in cold areas- I doubt ours will grow over 2 metres, and it is a very very slow grower here.
Ours also seems to be more drought hardy than other citrus, which may be because of its extraordinarily fragrant leaves- a high leaf oil content helps prevent moisture loss.
