  • Crop Profile for Citrus (Minor) Lime, Pummelo, and Kumquat in Florida
    Crop Profile for Citrus (Minor) Lime, Pummelo, and Kumquat in Florida Prepared: November, 2001 General Production Information ● Lime in this crop profile refers to the 'Tahiti' lime (Citrus latifolia). Pest management practices of other members of the Rutaceae such as Key lime (Citrus aurantifolia), pummelo (Citrus grandis), and kumquat (Fortunella sp.) may also be described, since survey questionnaires grouped these four tropical fruits together. All of these species of citrus are grown for the fresh market. ● The 1997-1998 average yield of limes in Florida was 14,344 pounds per acre. At a price of $5.02 per box, the Florida crop (440,000 boxes) was worth approximately $2.21 million (1). ● In 2000-2001, 1,171 acres in Florida produced 22 million pounds of 'Tahiti' lime. This is a 58 percent decrease from the previous year, when 53 million pounds were recorded (2,3). ● As of the end of 2000, there has been a 63 percent reduction in lime acreage since 1996 (bearing acreage of 3,168 acres). Except for 20 acres, all of the lime production is located in Miami-Dade County. Consequently, ninety-eight percent of 'Tahiti' lime production occurs in this county (3). ● Florida was ranked first in the United States in lime production. No other states were listed as leading lime-producers (1). ● Reductions in lime acreage have occurred due to Hurricane Andrew and citrus canker. Bearing acreage before Andrew was approximately 6,000 acres, which dropped drastically to 1,668 acres after this event (4). An estimated 290,000 lime trees (2,800 acres) have been lost to citrus canker in the 2000-2001 period (2).

  • About Limes by George Geary CCP
    All About Limes By George Geary CCP Lime History In the eighteenth century, Scottish naval surgeon Sir James Lind learned by his observation of long-haul sailors that citrus fruits conquered the dreaded scurvy (lack of Vitamin C) which had divested the ranks of the British navy more than any enemy. Between 1795 and 1815, some 1.6 million gallons of lime Juice drastically reduced the mortality rate of seamen. Along with their daily ration of rum, British sailors were required to consume a daily ration of lime Juice; hence British seamen became known as limeys. Since Britain was often at war with Mediterranean countries that exported lemons, limes imported cheaply from the English colony of Jamaica were substituted as the citrus of choice. Key Lime (also known as Mexican Lime and West Indies Lime) Cultivated for thousands of years in the Indo-Malayan region, this variety has long been treasured for its fruit and decorative foliage. The Key lime made its way to North Africa and the Near East via Arabian traders, and then carried on to Palestine and Mediterranean Europe by the Crusaders. Columbus is credited with bringing the Key lime to Haiti, where Spanish settlers to Florida carried it on. It flourished in South Florida, particularly the Florida Keys, hence the current common name of Key lime. Due to hurricane-depleted soils, locals switched from pineapple commercial crops to limes in 1906, and business boomed until a hurricane once again reared and wiped out the lime groves, never to be restored. Today, most Key limes come from Mexico.

    A Horticulture Information article from the Wisconsin Master Gardener website, posted 15 March 2010 Green Flowers Green is the color right now with St. Patrick’s Day approaching. Have you ever paid attention to fl owers with this color? In the garden, green is the most common foliage color, yet one of the rarest fl ower colors. Green fl owers are unusual, so when presented correctly, they add an air of sophistication to a planting and look good with every color. There are some naturally occurring green fl owers, but many more have been “created” by breeding and selection. These fl oral oddities are a fun addition to the garden. Some plants that naturally come in green include orchids and aroids Green is the thing in March. like Jack-in-the-Pulpit (Arisaema triphyllum) (not to mention a number of weeds with inconspicuous fl owers, but who wants those in their garden?). Naturally green fl owers of Cymbidium orchid (L), Pterostylis orchid (LC), Arisaema triphyllum (RC) and Bells of Ireland (R). Many newer green fl owers have been developed primarily for the cut fl ower and fl orist industry. There are green roses such as light green ‘Jade’ and yellow green ‘Emerald’ (and more varieties currently being developed in The Netherlands) as well as a bi-color rose ‘Cezanne’ that is a creamy pistachio edged with pink. The mossy green ‘Marimo’ hybrid Gerbera, green hydrangeas, green cymbidiums, and ‘Lime Green’ Lisianthus (from the Mariachi series that is a beautiful, pale green ) are marketed to fl orists. Among the exotic blooms shipped for fl oral arrangements are ‘Midori’ anthuriums and ‘Green Goddess’ callas (Zantedeschia).
