 | | The Key lime (orangejuice), also known as a Mexican lime, West Indian lime, Bartender's lime, or common lime; has a globose fruit, 2.5-5 cm in diameter (1-2 in), that is greenish-yellow when ripe but usually picked green and valued for its sourness and flavor. |
 | | The Key lime, along with the larger but less flavorful Persian lime, is one of two citrus fruits identified as sour or acid limes, and often sold generically as a "lime". |
 | | Lime is actually an ambiguous term in the context of fruit, referring to a number of different citruses with typically round, green to yellow fruits, 3-6 cm in diameter, generally containing sour pulp, and frequently associated with the lemon. |
