Makrut lime, botanically known as Citrus hystrix, is a citrus fruit native to Southeast Asia, prized for its exceptionally fragrant leaves and bumpy-skinned fruit. These glossy, dark green leaves have a citrusy, floral, and slightly peppery flavor that is an irreplaceable element in many dishes. They are similar to bay leaves in that they are typically used whole to infuse flavor and then removed before serving. Sunlight: They need at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight per day. Water: Water the plant deeply, but allow the soil to dry out a bit between waterings to prevent root rot. Soil: Plant in well-draining soil with plenty of organic matter. Harvesting: Leaves can be harvested year-round. Pick mature, dark green leaves for the best flavor.
