    My parents used to have a lime tree a couple decades ago. We live in New England so most of the year isn’t good for citrus trees, so it lived inside. When it would bloom my mom would take a fresh artist paint brush (think smaller than anything you get from a hardware store) and would gently go from flower to flower spreading the pollen “like a bee”. We would have fresh limes all the time because she did that.
