Description:
The lime tree is native to India and was eventually brought to other parts of the eastern world including europe. It has a history of being used by spanish sailors to prevent scurvy as it happens to be an excellent source of vitamin C, a nutrient not readily available to sailors during this period. Lime fruit are similar in many ways to lemon, and the essential oils of both have a very sweet citrus smell to them, and have similar uses in essential oil.
