Finger Lime - Rosebank Red

$49.00 ($24.00-$49.00 choose a size)

A very popular dense growing, sweet variety similar in taste to tahitian lime and grapefruit. Red to maroon colour skin with light green to pink pearls. Fruiting may occur year round in warm climates. The zesty flavoured pearls of this finger lime are best used in desserts, salads, cocktails or with yogurt. The fruit has a long shelf life lasting many weeks in the fridge. The bushes will grow to be a dense screen so may be used in urban areas for privacy. Small Birds will happily find shelter amongst the protective prickly stems and branches. An excellent selection for gourmet gardens.
