DESCRIPTION
Finger Lime Tree (Citrus australasica)
The “Caviar of Citrus” — a rare tropical delight now available for your home garden.
The Finger Lime Tree, also known as Citrus caviar, is a prized tropical citrus native to the rainforests of Australia. Its slender, elongated fruits burst open to reveal pearl-like citrus vesicles — tangy, refreshing, and often used by chefs as a garnish for fine dishes and cocktails.
Compact yet productive, this small tree grows beautifully in Singapore’s tropical climate and can even thrive in large pots or planters. When in bloom, it rewards you with clusters of fragrant white flowers followed by finger-shaped limes that range from green to reddish tones depending on maturity.

Plants
It’s completely normal for plants to experience a bit of stress when they arrive at a new home. This may show as slight wilting or a few yellowing leaves—nothing to worry about! It’s a temporary adjustment period as the plant settles into its new environment, and with the right care, it will quickly bounce back and thrive.
Just like us humans, plants aren’t perfect. They’re living things with their own unique character, and minor imperfections are a natural part of their life. What’s most important—and what we guarantee—is that your plant is healthy and ready to flourish with the proper care.
Just like when you're picking out a plant in person—there's always that moment of, "this one or that one looks nicer?"—each plant has its own unique charm. That's the beauty of nature!
On our end, we make that process easier for you. We work directly with trusted growers to select the best batches, and every plant goes through a 3-step quality check before it gets packed. If a plant doesn’t meet our health standards, we simply don’t send it out.
That’s what you get when shopping with us—healthy, happy plants that are ready to thrive in your space.
