Christina, you had hinted a couple of months ago about kaffir lime seeds. I had mentioned that I had a cluster of blossoms. One of them had set a fruit, but it just sat there and eventually fell off.

I've since had several more clusters of blooms and now there are several baby limes. One of them is noticably larger now then the others, so it is apparently growing! My lime tree is also looking much healthier and robust now, so maybe I'll get lucky and have some seeds in a few months!

I can't believe I missed this post...some Garden Helper I am! [Big Grin]

That's just great Terry!!! Keep us all posted.
I can't remember if you said you've had fruit before or not. Is this the first time?

This is the first time from flowering for me. There were 2 or 3 fruits on the plant when I bought it, but they're long gone.
