Ogeechee Lime Trees [Nyssa ogeche]

Ogeechee Lime Trees are a very rare but increasingly popular member of the Tupelo family. The only natural habitat for Ogeechee Limes is in the Southeast coastal plains from South Carolina to Florida, and especially in swamplands. Ogeechee Lime Trees grow well with both full or partial sun, can withstand flooding, and will adapt to normal garden conditions as well. The oblong Ogeechee fruit itself has beautiful color changes and are eaten by water fowl and raccoons.
