I have tahitian lime and west indian lime and the fruits drop off when ripe. Australian lime turns yellow when ripens and stays on the tree even after the next years fruit is set like most Oranges. The fruits are large and I bought this tree from Bunnings and summer prune ti shape

4kg of fruit per year is awesome. Is the reason it stays on the tree because it is resilliant and your other varieties fall off?
