If you are ready to have the fresh, sweet scent of the Florida Keys right in your own home, then Gerald Winters and Son Plants is proud to introduce you to our newest offering – Key Lime Tree. This Starter Tree is grown from seed and is currently between 3” and 5” in height above soil. It will continue to grow either outdoor, or indoor when temperatures reach freezing temperature. For colder winter months, you can replace direct sunlight with UV Grow Lights with no loss of development. They can vary in size, but are quick growing, so even a smaller plant will be considerably larger in a couple of weeks.

They are well rooted, healthy, and ready to be adopted into your family, to bring you years of joy. Being hardy, and strong, they are ready to be acclimated to your home, so you can continue to nurture them and watch them grow larger, so that in a couple of years they will be fruit-bearing.

Started small, but has grown quickly
Tree was quite small, with two leaves. I followed the care instructions religiously, including regular grow light use. This is the tree after one year. It has been transplanted twice, and is doing wonderfully.

Didn’t make it
Started off great but tree didn’t make it. Not sure what I did wrong. I followed the instructions. All the flower plants I purchased from Lowes 1 Fig, grape vines and some lilies from Walmart did great. I also purchased 3 Cherry & 1 Peach on Amazon that did fine except these mandarin, a pineapple plant, banana and some mandarin trees from Amazon. I think buying local is better. I’ve had better success, the prices on Amazon are much higher. I could have gotten a 1 or 2 year tree at tractor supply for the amount I paid for this sapling.

I love it.
This won't let me leave a 5 star for some reason, but for reals, I has no idea how it would handle shipping. This tree is in perfect condition. It appears healthy and vital and I am loving it.

Nice plant
Here is what mine looks like after 1 year. I just moved it to a bigger pot. Healthy, good growth rate.

Not bad
Looked good at delivery, was very impressed but not much root, about 5 inches tall max. Soil was still decently moist after the long 10 day trip. I didn't get a 'free seed' though. Little expensive too

Tiny, but very healthy & growing!
I keep a grow light on it for 12 hours a day per instructions, give it 4 OZ of water every two days, and its doing great! Ask again in one year! Very healthy little tree!!!

Little Key Lime Plant
The plant was packaged perfectly! I can tell it was handled with care!!! I am pleased with the quality!! They included care instructions, and one seed with instructions as well. Nice touch! I'm looking forward to where my journey goes with this little plant!!Update: The smaller part of the plant has died. The larger one is still thriving. We shall see the outcome.2nd Update 11/24/2023: Well what was left of the plant was thriving, but now it is not doing well at all. The leaves have started to curl inward. I don't think it's the provider, however, I believe it is user error. Be careful where you sit your plant in your home. I believe this curling is from heat since I had it sitting in the widow, as well as my heater vent was almost directly above the plant.If the provider will advise me on how I can save this plant, that would be amazing. I have using YouTube to try to provide a solution to save it!
