Hi Phillis

There are few ways to propagate your superior finger lime.
1. Graft it to an existing citrus tree like lime, lemon, and orange from their (relatives/friends) trees. I've done inter-species grafting with my citrus trees and I'm happy with the results.
2. Buy a trifoliata rootstock and graft your f-lime to it. There are 16 available trifoliata rootstock here at Daley's as of this writing. Just type in trifoliata rootstock in the search button and it will come up.
3. Marcot some of the branches. Citrus tree is one of the easiest trees to Marcot. I've done it several times to give to friends and family. There is a tutorial video here in this forum. Watch it and enjoy doing. It's fun and easy.

Happy gardening :-)
