Citrus

Rainforest Pearl is a premium cultivar in the Citrus Gems® range, grafted for improved vigour, earlier fruiting, and greater tolerance of light frost and dry conditions. This attractive evergreen tree features deep green, rounded foliage, thorny stems and a graceful, slightly weeping habit that responds well to pruning. Delicate white flowers tinged with pink appear in summer, followed by slender, aromatic finger-shaped fruit with green to reddish skin. The fruit begins ripening on the tree and reaches its peak flavour after being picked and left for 5–10 days. Inside, the vibrant citrus pearls burst with tangy, refreshing juice, making them a gourmet favourite for seafood, Asian dishes, desserts and cocktails. Trees typically begin producing fruit from the second autumn after planting, making Rainforest Pearl a rewarding addition to home gardens and edible landscapes.

The Red Finger Lime, often known as the Caviar Lime, is a distinctive native Australian citrus prized for its unique, gourmet fruit. Long, slender fruits are filled with vibrant red, pearl-like vesicles that resemble caviar, bursting with a deliciously sweet lime flavour. Fruit naturally falls from the tree once ripe, typically between November and March. It is important to allow the fruit to fully mature on the tree, as it will not continue to ripen after picking. The striking citrus pearls are perfect for adding a burst of flavour and texture to summer drinks, seafood, desserts, chutneys, jams, and marmalades. With its attractive evergreen foliage and naturally compact habit, the Red Finger Lime makes an excellent feature tree in the garden or thrives in a large pot on a patio or courtyard.

Soil: Plant in composted, well-draining soil. Mulch in spring and keep the soil moist in summer.
Conditions: Will perform best in a warm sheltered spot in full sun. Tolerant of light frost and dry conditions.
