I can't find any lime seeds in Finland. Only limes I have found here are seedless. I love the taste, and I'd like to have some seeds. I don't even find a lime tree anywhere for sale.

Is there a big difference in taste in different limes? I don't know what limes the ones I have eaten are, they are just sold as "seedless limes".

Can someone help me out and send me some lime seeds, please? Any kind of limes will do.

Persian (Bearss) limes do not have seed. You need to find a grafted tree or Key limes which do have seed.

One of our European members should be able to help you out.

Very cool woodwork by the way. That bike is awesome !

Thanks!

I'll have to ask the local supermarket if their organically grown limes are Key limes. I remember seeing some in there a month ago. There was no mention of it in the box.

Key limes are easy to distinguish by appearance-- they are much smaller--typically a little smaller than a ping-pong ball.
