When to plant desert lime in Alice Springs

We don't have planting times for desert lime in Alice Springs yet.

Worked out from 30 years of climate records for Alice Springs. Microclimates vary: frost hollows and hills run later.

A very hardy native citrus from inland Australia that copes with Adelaide's heat, drought and frost. Its small, tangy fruit is great for marmalade, sauces and drinks. Plants grown from seed are slow and very thorny; grafted plants fruit sooner.
