The pale-yellow peel offers a stunning contrast against the glossy evergreen leaves. It performs best in a full-sun location, although it can also handle a bit of afternoon shade. If you live outside its hardiness range, you can bring potted Limequat plants indoors when the temperatures drop in autumn. And because its harvest season is late fall through early spring, you'll harvest the fruit indoors! Each plant is self-pollinating, so you don't need two plants to produce fruit.
