Thornless Mexican Lime Trees for Sale
Citrus made easy for growers, nurseries, and distributors
TreeSource offers high-quality Mexican Thornless Lime trees, also known as the Thornless Key Lime tree. These trees are valued for their exceptional fruit and adaptability, making them a top choice for both home gardeners and commercial growers.
The Thornless Mexican Lime tree is prized for producing small, round limes with bright green skin, aromatic zest, and juicy, tangy fruit that is perfect for culinary uses, beverages, and cocktails. Unlike traditional lime varieties, the Mexican Thornless Key Lime Tree has little to no thorns, which makes it far easier to handle, prune, and harvest, especially in home garden settings where accessibility and safety are important considerations. In climates similar to California, the fruit will turn yellow as it matures, but the Key lime flavor will stay strong.

We’re a retailer who is interested in more mature Thornless Mexican lime trees. Can you help us with this?
No. TreeSource does not sell retail-ready products.
Are your Mexican Thornless lime trees grafted or grown from seed?
TreeSource offers Thornless Mexican lime trees as rooted cuttings and as grafted trees. Rooted cuttings are grown on their own roots, making them an excellent choice to transplant into a 1 gallon container.
While rooted cuttings may not offer the same level of disease resistance as grafted trees, they provide several advantages, especially for container gardening. These trees thrive in small containers, perfect for a retail customer that may want them for patios, balconies, and backyards. For a more resilient tree, TreeSource offers Mexican Key limes on disease resistant rootstocks such Volkameriana or Carrizo.
