Australian Finger Lime is a culinary hybrid prized for its oblong green fruit that are filled with caviar-like beads that burst with tart citrus flavor. A slow grower that remains small, it is ideal as a potted specimen. Eventually forming a dense shrub like tree, its branches are covered with sharp spines and small dark green leaves. Native to Australia and adaptable to a variety of growing conditions, like all citrus it is sensitive to frost and requires protection when temperatures drop below freezing.
