Pimento pepper, Persian Lime tree

[FILMNET]

This is a Bonnie Pimento plant finally has peppers, very late. And my wonderful Persian Lime tree with 5 or 6 limes.This tree is selling in box stores here in the south, and Publix supermarkets sell these lime's. They are sweet and a lot of water.

Very nice. I hope they're worth the wait. Pimento is my favorite kind of pepper to cook with and eat.

Looking real good.! I'm surprised you can grow limes in SC. How you overwinter the plant?

Bring the plant in the home if it it under 40dg, this yr i got a bigger pot and feed this it was really nice. I had 15 flowers, now 5-6 big limes

Thanks. : ) I haven't heard of the Persian Lime before. If I can find where I put them, I have some Mexican Lime seeds. Hadn't sowed them because I didn't think we could grow limes down here. Your pics encouraging.

Keep an eye on your lime's leaves, you might have greasy spot. Looks like your fruit are heading toward ripening! Nice!

This is the best leaves this plant has had, they are yellow. In spring with year i put it into a bigger pot with new dirt, i got 20 flowers. What is greasy spot? I do see spots, and how do i know about ripening? I work in this store now, they sell these limes. They are really great sweet limes.
