Microcitrus Red Finger Lime – Grafted 200mm Pot

Microcitrus Red Finger Lime – Grafted (200mm Pot)

The Red Finger Lime (Microcitrus australasica) is a highly sought-after Australian native citrus prized for its unique caviar-like fruit pearls and bold flavour. This grafted finger lime offers earlier fruiting, improved reliability and consistent performance in home gardens and pots.

Producing slender, dark green fruit filled with vibrant red citrus pearls, Red Finger Lime is a favourite for chefs, food lovers and home gardeners. The tangy, aromatic juice bursts make it ideal for seafood, desserts, cocktails and garnishing.

Finger limes thrive in full sun to part shade and are well suited to Australian conditions. The naturally compact growth habit makes this variety perfect for backyards, courtyards and large containers. As an Australian native citrus, it is also more tolerant of humidity than traditional citrus varieties.

The 200mm grafted plant is well established and ready to plant for faster results.
