Australian Finger Lime (forum)

ColinR starts with ...
Hello

I have a property in central Luzon in Philippines and would like to grow an Australian finger lime. Do you know how I could go about sourcing one...have you ever heard of an Australian grower supplying plants to Philippines?

You may have to grow it from seed, also you might try to locate it in other countries ie Thailand where it is grown as an ornamental.

I've never seen them as an ornamental in Thailand but on the chatuchak market in Bangkok they are for sale on wednesday when there's plant market.

The vendors mostly don't speak english though.

Hi Bankokii, I was thinking about your previous comments re finger lime in Thailand. I guess I meant I got the impression that fingerlime is grown as a pot plant, yard plant, sold in markets as you say ie ornamental fruiting plant, not in plantations for fruit production as it is in Australia.
