The citrus fruit Limetta Rossa (or Citrus limetta var. rossa) is a small citrus fruit highly prized for its bright red flesh and unique flavor. Coming from the Rutaceae family, this citrus fruit is a rare variety that stands out for its unique appearance and slightly sweet taste with a touch of acidity. The Limetta Rossa is a modest-sized tree, suitable for growing in pots or in the open ground, particularly in Mediterranean regions. Its dark green leaves are shiny, and it produces fragrant white flowers, typical of citrus fruits, attracting pollinators. Its fruits, of medium size, are globular with a thin, red-orange skin. The pulp, of a bright red, recalls the appearance of a blood orange, but its taste remains sweeter and subtler.

To grow well, Limetta Rossa requires a sunny environment sheltered from the wind. It tolerates drought episodes quite well, but appreciates regular watering, especially during the growth and fruiting period. In winter, in regions with cold winters, it is advisable to bring the pots inside or protect the tree with a wintering veil.
