Finger limes, often called citrus caviar, are filled with tiny juice pearls that burst with lime flavour. Flying Dragon Nursery grows grafted finger lime trees in four colours: green, brown (pink flesh), Aubergine black and Golden Pearl yellow. We were the first to introduce the brown, Aubergine black and Golden Pearl finger limes to New Zealand.

Why buy a grafted finger lime?

Seed-grown finger limes can take many years to fruit. Our trees are grafted, so they crop far sooner and you know which colour you are getting. Choose Flying Dragon dwarf rootstock for pots and small gardens, or Rubidoux Trifoliata for a larger tree.

Growing finger limes in NZ

Give them full sun, shelter from strong wind and free-draining soil or potting mix. They grow well in a large pot. Trees are sent NZ-wide from Kerikeri, Northland. See our citrus tree FAQs or browse all lime trees.
