Mean looking Kaffir lime fruit.

Nice. I have a few tiny grape-sized ones on my tree but they just look like tiny lemons right now.
That is really cool looking Sri!!! What is the taste like?
Actually, I'm a ratard, as I don't actually have a kaffir lime tree, I have a kumquat tree. I'm not sure what I was thinking. It was at like 4 in the morning, so I'll blame it on that.
I would definitely like to get one sometime though. what i have planted in the pot produces golf ball size or smaller.
the one above is from a huge and very tall tree in the village. had to use a very long bamboo to knock the fruits down. hehehe
the one i am showing is just one of the smaller ones . there are bigger fruits but by the time i wanted to take photo. the bigger ones had been given.
it has a bitter sour taste. good for making tom yum soup
yes i have. i removed the skin and put some rooting powder.and then put some soil and wrap around it with a cloth.Have you tried to root any twigs off your plant? I'm attempting to do so right now. So far the leaves are still green.
coolest lime EVER!
Ha, sweet. My plant is still small so I'm not expecting fruit anytime soon...
Hopefully you use the leaves for cooking. One of the best herbs in Thai cooking.

Do you not have to graft to a vigorous rootstock with Kaffir limes, like you do with other citrus?
