Rangpur Lime
Rangpur Lime: Common names for this fruit include Rangpur in Bangladesh, a city is known for this and other citrus fruits. This is where the word originated in the Bengali language. The Rangpur is known as a Canton lemon in South China, a Hime lemon in Japan, a Cravo lemon in Brazil, and mandarin-lime in the United States.

The name lime in connection with this fruit is often misleading because there are very few similarities between the Rangpur and true limes. However, Rangpurs are highly acidic and can be used as a substitute for commercial limes. The Rangpur is of Indian origin. It was introduced into Florida in the late nineteenth century by Reasoner Brothers of Oneco, who obtained seed from northwestern India. In the United States the Rangpur is used as an ornamental or potted plant, but outside the United States it is used principally as a rootstock. [Source: Wikipedia]
