Because they are so spiny and the growth is dense they are great havens for wildlife - we have birds nesting in ours, tiny tree frogs, and a few of the usual things that like feeding on citrus. All this, and the bonus of the fruit.

I have over 20 fingerlime grafted plants and what i have found is to pott hem in a 28 ltr pot with perlite for an inch at the bottom and use the debco rose mix and add some citrus slow release this works well to get them to flower within 12 months !

I have grown my grafted fingerlime for 2 years now. They may tolerate frosts but don't like strong wind. The only flowering I had was blown away 12 months ago and nothing since. Any suggestions appreciated.

Finger Lime

Keep well watered and fertilise regularly but lightly with citrus food. Watch for scale and sooty mold. Keep any mulch well away from the stem as it's prone to fungal rot. Full sun to part shade. Good drainage necessary.
