Also called Dooja occurs naturally in the areas just outside the rainforest canopy. Its fruits are rough skinned and globular, but quite edible when still green, even though they turn yellow on the tree.

Lazz,
The finger lime is kicking butt, about 4 feet high 3 feet wide but no flowers yet. The folks at UCR and Four Winds say be patient. So here I sit.
I also have some pretty decent 6 month old seedlings of the Microcitrus Australasica Var Sanguinea, Virgata, Faustremedin, Australis, Warburgiana, and Inodora. I probably won't see any fruit from these until I retire.
How old is your finger lime? _________________ citrusboy aka marc

I don't know how many years it is until you retire, but I have found that several of my Microcitrus seedlings have first flowered at around 6 to 8 years. In California, rather than the fairly miserable UK climate, you could probably beat that by a couple of years.
Any chance of some photos of your seedlings, especially warburgiana and inodora? Have you seen any 'paired thorns' on the inodora? |

Citrusboy, are you going to know which seedling is which in order to correctly label them? - Millet |

Good question Millet, I was so pissed off. I had a spreadsheet outlining what and where. Just goes to show you. Technology isn't always better. Should have labeled them.
As soon as they hit a year, I should have a easier time telling what's what by the leaves. I plan on visiting UCR in Spring and snagging some leaves so I can compare.
Australian ones should be easy. Blood oranges harder... _________________ citrusboy aka marc

If by accident, you happen to snag some stems along with the leaves, send the stems straight to me, and I will help you identify them after the stems have fruited, |

The Microcitrus inodora are the two right hand seedlings in the bottom row of the first picture.
Unlike the seedlings I grew from UCR seeds, your inodora's are true to type with the correct shaped leaves and I think I can even see the paired spines. |

Thank You!!! Those two little guys aren't doing so well right now. We have had 7 days of rain recently and they are looking like they are dying. So I make be planting some more this spring. At least they will be labeled!
I will try to get a better picture for you. _________________ citrusboy aka marc
