WHEEEEEEEEEE! I just ordered an Australian Finger Lime
Comments (12)I have a current question, I bought numerous different citrus trees to grow in containers this year. All but the finger lime and the yuzu have at least flowered so far this spring and summer. Do finger limes take longer than average to mature? It is about 3 feet tall and has a decent canopy so I would have expected some flowers at least. Thanks in advance!...See MoreAustralian Finger Limes in San Diego County
Comments (45)It is very lovely where we are, we are surrounded by commercial nurseries because we have such great growing conditions right where we are. We feel very, very blessed We do spend huge amounts of time outside, here. I have an entire outdoor kitchen, in fact (both of us being of Italian extraction, we must have an awesome kitchen, lol!) We are all doing well, I am recovering from a shingles outbreak, which I'm kind of young for and had not gotten the vaccine, yet. I would not wish that on my worst enemy. So, I would admonish anyone who had chicken pox as a kid, to talk to your doctor about the wisdom of getting a shingles vaccination. I'm hoping I don't end up with permanent nerve damage from that outbreak, ugh. All the family is well, and we're gearing up for our annual July 4th shindig! Jades are doing great! One is big, one is still small, and I might have a little something for you, hint, hint :-) Patty S....See MoreAustralian finger lime + bay area fruit growing..
Comments (8)I have one in a pot I bought at a native plant sale a couple of years ago. The deer nibbled it and set it back somewhat last year, but I see some new growth on it this year. The new leaves are very dark, almost black but I assume they will green as they grow. I'm glad to see what a more fully grown one looks like, thanks! I look forward-- eventually -- to fruit as some other pages indicate it is very tasty.......See MoreHas anyone grown Australian finger limes?
