Citrus australasica

5 from 1 customers

Citrus australasica, commonly known as the Finger Lime or Caviar Lime, is an evergreen shrub grown for its unusual fruit, which is regarded as a food delicacy. The oblong fruit has caviar-like flesh, which is juicy with a tangy, lemon-lime flavour. Citrus australasica typically grows to 2 m tall and the same wide, and can be pruned as necessary. The trees are commonly added to a mixed planting, planted around outdoor living areas, maintained in containers, or grown as small specimens.
