Red Australian Finger Lime Tree ‘Red Champagne’ (Citrus australasica sanguinea)

Rare Red Australian Finger Lime ‘Red Champagne’ is highly sought after for its flavor and unique color. It’s a promising, new introduction in the horticultural and culinary worlds alike. The long finger-shaped fruit has thick skin which keeps the reddish-pink juice vesicles inside plump and juicy. Simply cut the Australian Lime fruit lengthwise or in half and pop the colorful juice vesicles into a drink or use as a salad garnish. In our trials, this was the first new Red Finger Lime to produce fruit as a young plant. Fragrant flowers emerge fall to spring and the fruit starts to ripen in December. ‘Red Champagne’ is a grafted plant so, you can expect fruit within the first two years and when mature, it will bear heavily. Available in a 4" pot.
