Citrus australasica, also known as finger lime, is a unique fruit native to Australia, characterized by its short, green cylindrical shape and caviar-like prills that burst with lime flavor. This natural dwarf can be grown as a shrub or tree and is suitable for indoor pots. It thrives in partial shade, requires acidic soil, and is adapted to a wide range of climates.
