Thanks all

Will have some comparitors when plant arrives from suttons.

Feeling so far its going to be the red rangpur but time will tell.

Plant may arrive early next week or suttons may just hold off on dispatch as first cold spell of winter is forcast.

As I already said for me they are useless, only ornamental.
I only tasted it fresh. Maybe they could make marmalade but I wouldn't try myself. Smile

By the way, like others I think the first picture is an Australian red lime and the origin is a mistake.

Well, now we know - and several clever people guessed correctly!

Thank you for your email.
The lime we are selling is Citrus x Limonia 'Osbeck' commonly known as red lime or Rangpur lime. We have accidentally used the incorrect image and will change this. May I thank you for bringing this to our attention. Thanks for getting in touch with us.
