I bought these seeds mainly for the leaves, since I use them in curries and soups. The plants are thriving, and I no longer have to hunt for fresh kaffir lime leaves at specialty stores.
These seeds produced hardy seedlings that adapted well to my indoor greenhouse. The distinctive citrus scent is already coming through in the leaves. Definitely worth it for gardeners.
I was impressed with the germination rate�most of the seeds I planted sprouted. The plants are strong and doing well in pots. Looking forward to harvesting fruits in the future.
As someone who loves Southeast Asian cuisine, I can say these seeds are the real deal. The plants sprouted within two weeks, and the aroma of the leaves is exactly what I was looking for.
I planted these seeds a few months back and now have small but healthy plants. The leaves are already fragrant, and I�m excited for the fruits. Perfect for someone who enjoys cooking Thai food at home.
