We had enough rain this year for your tree to be ok. However you need to pick the limes when they are really young and have tender skins, once they stay on the tree too long they get hard skin and tough and not too juicy. And not all of them are really that great but at least half of them are pretty juicy, but in general they taste good. I just made 4 maitais and had to juice at least 7 of them to get enough juice for the drinks.
