Yellow limes?

Question

I have a citrus lime tree. If I leave the fruit on the tree too long, they turn yellow and drop off. Are they still limes, or are they now lemons?

Answer 1

It can be sometimes difficult to determine the ripeness of Limes.
Usually the best time to pick them is right before they turn yellow.
