Category: Plants

A popular, less thorny and more flavoursome version of the Makrut lime (also known as Kaffir lime), this variety is juicy, not dry, but with all the benefits of the Makrut. The leaves are an important part of many Asian and Indian cuisines, while the fruit yield a rich oil from the rind which can be harvested with a fine grater. The oil is subtly perfumed and is used in the preparation of local herbal shampoos and nit treatments. An attractive small tree that thrives in warmer climates in the ground and in cooler areas it performs beautifully in a pot.

Chloe ★★★★★

This plant arrived incredibly well-packaged and is already putting out new growth a week later. The leaves smell even more fragrant than I expected for such a young plant.

Charlotte Q. ★★★★★

I’ve already used two leaves in my curry and the flavor is noticeably brighter than any dried lime leaf I’ve tried. The plant arrived healthy with sturdy stems, and the fact it’s less thorny makes handling it so much easier.

Julian ★★★★★

The first leaf I crushed was incredible—pungent and limey, just what I wanted for Thai curries. The plant arrived healthy and well-packed, and I'm already seeing new growth on the less thorny stems.
