Citrus australasica
Purple Finger Lime is a striking native citrus producing slender fruit with dark purple to maroon skin. Inside, the pearls range from deep pink to reddish tones, bursting with a refreshing citrus flavour that’s tangy, aromatic, and highly sought after by chefs.
The tree is compact, slow growing, and naturally thorny, making it ideal for small gardens, pots, and specialty plantings. It’s hardy once established and performs well in warm and subtropical climates.
