I saw one of those at my local nursery that had a good amount of fruit on it, I was tempted to get it but they are very thorny and I decided not to get it. Good luck with yours.... Bear

Here in Japan too. I heard restaurants in Tokyo import them from Australia. Up to now, only one farmer in Japan was able to harvest some fruits. To grow this finger lime in Japan is quite a challenge. LOL.

FYI: Just fruits and exotics AUSTRALIAN FINGER LIMEÂ*TREE | Just Fruits and Exotics has this tree - if you live in Florida. The tree is $59.99 for a 5 foot tree in a 3 gallon pot - shipping extra. I do not have any experience with this nursery.
