Lime trees all have similar fruits: a bunch of little balls attached on a slender stalk to a leaf-like bract
As they ripen, the bracts turn gold or brown in contrast to the heart-shaped leaves that are only just beginning to turn.
I took these pics at the majestic row of common limes in the Thornbury Tesco grounds. Common lime is a hybrid of our two native limes, the large-leaved and the small leaved. It is the most commonly planted tree in British towns.
