Love this fruit. I make jams, cordials and tea from it. So easy to grow in south east Qld. Grows faster than other citrus trees and doesn't need watering.

Another random fruit tree purchase...just cant help myself ;)) I always justify my new additions by planting in a very large pot and maintaining my dream of buying a farmlet... Anyhow, back to the 'Buddhas hand'. Its growing beautifully in the pot.
