The Tahitian lime, also known as the Persian lime, is a popular, seedless variety known for its bright green, smooth skin and tangy, zesty flavor. It is larger than the typical Key lime and has a milder acidity, making it a versatile choice for culinary uses, beverages, and garnishes. The tree is hardy and thrives in warm climates, producing abundant fruit throughout the year. Unlike other limes, Tahitian limes remain green even when fully ripe.
