Red Bush Giant Finger Lime Exotic Citrus Tree: Elevate Your Garden with a Rare and Unique Citrus Delight
Tree Size (as shipped): Your Red Bush Giant Finger Lime Exotic Citrus Tree will arrive at a manageable height of 12 – 15 inches, making it ideal for immediate planting in both garden beds and containers. Its compact size allows for easy handling and ensures a strong start in your home garden or patio setup.
Mature Tree Size: Over the course of 5 to 7 years, this extraordinary citrus tree will mature to a height of 6 – 8 feet, depending on the size of the container and the care it receives. Its growth habit is perfect for those who desire a striking, yet space-efficient, citrus tree that can thrive in a variety of indoor and outdoor environments.
Exotic Micro-Citrus Fruit: The Red Bush Giant Finger Lime tree is celebrated for producing fruit with vesicles that resemble caviar, often referred to as “citrus caviar.” These tiny, bead-like vesicles burst with a tangy, lemon-lime flavor, making them a prized ingredient among gourmet chefs and food enthusiasts. Similar to the Australian Finger Lime, this variety offers a unique twist with its robust size and distinct flavor profile, perfect for enhancing seafood dishes, cocktails, and desserts.
Propagation and Care: This tree is propagated from rooted cuttings, not grafted, ensuring a consistent and robust growth pattern. Its rooted origin means it is less prone to graft-related issues, leading to a healthier, more resilient plant over time. The tree thrives in a subtropical climate, but it can also be grown in a well-lit indoor environment or greenhouse in cooler regions. For best results, plant it in a container with excellent drainage, and provide regular watering and citrus-specific fertilizer.
Container Growing: The Red Bush Giant Finger Lime tree is perfectly suited for container growing, allowing you to cultivate this rare citrus variety even in limited spaces. Choose a large, sturdy container to allow ample room for root expansion, and ensure it has good drainage to prevent waterlogged soil. Whether placed on a sunny patio or inside near a bright window, this tree will flourish, providing year-round greenery and seasonal fruit harvests.
Unique Ornamental Appeal: Beyond its culinary uses, the Red Bush Giant Finger Lime tree adds a unique ornamental value to your garden or home. Its lush green foliage and thorny branches make it an attractive, low-maintenance choice for those looking to add a touch of the exotic to their plant collection. The tree’s fruit, with its distinctive caviar-like vesicles, is not only a culinary delight but also a visual treat that will captivate guests and family members alike.
Shipping and Handling: Your Red Bush Giant Finger Lime tree will be shipped in a 3-Gallon plastic container filled with nutrient-rich soil and triple-layer protection. This careful packaging ensures that your tree arrives healthy and ready to thrive in its new home. Due to USDA regulations, please note that we cannot ship this tree to Arizona, California, Louisiana, Hawaii, or Texas.
Care Tips for Optimal Growth: The Red Bush Giant Finger Lime tree thrives in USDA Plant Hardiness Zones 10-11. For optimal growth, place the tree in a sunny location with at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily. During the growing season, fertilize with a balanced citrus fertilizer to support healthy growth and fruit production. Ensure the soil is well-draining and water the tree consistently, allowing the top layer of soil to dry out between waterings to prevent root rot.
