Our summary of the history of citrus in the Miscellany says:
By the 13th century lemon, sour orange, citron, and what is probably
lime are described from northern Italy.
The source for that is:
Batchelor, Leon D. and Webber, Herbert John, The Citrus Industry, 1946.
But I can't swear to their exact words. I might be able to dig up our
photocopy of the chapter if you want their source.
