I have a lime tree (sort of have one because my son has it. It is planted in a what was once a half of a wooden whiskey barrel. It is very old now and lives on my son's tiny deck that is attached to his condo. He sort of inherited it when I left home to go and live in my motor home. He brings me some limes when he comes over from Calif. They are very good. He has taken fine care of it.
