Wonderful
Reviewed By: Barb (Denver, CO)
I got lemon, lime and orange trees last year. I know they are small and sad looking when you get them, but believe me, treat them right and they grow like weeds. All of mine quadrupled in size by the late fall, they are gorgeous! Can't wait till spring, I'm sure I will have fruit this year!

not so bad
Reviewed By: Aj (reading, pa)
I purchased this product last year. When it arrives it does look pretty pathetic. Do not let this fool you. This year I have limes growing on a very nice looking tree. I have about a dozen limes growing on a 2 foot tree right now. It looks great. Don't let the first year deceive you.
