I have some budwood of red fingerlime. Is someboby interested? I live in Germany. So sending to the US will be problematic. Europe and many other countries are possible. The budwood is gratis. I would only accept a few buds of Tahitian Pummelo, Cunnigham Livource, and Siamese Sweet.

Do you know the cultivar? Does it taste good?

I have no exact cultivar name but it is a red fingerlime. I think I got it from agrumilenzi.it but could not find the original order in my emails. The taste is sharply sour. The taste is not really lemonlike. It lacks the orangelike aromata of a lemon but has a taste of its own. Some wrote it had a cerosine taste. When I tasted my fruit (only one up to now) I knew what they mean by that but it was absolutely not nasty, had quite a good taste. The overall impression is sour and refreshing. Lets say it has decent subtones that remind you of the smell of alkohol disinfectant. (I have never drunken it. :-))

The red fingerlimes from them are not really so red or so delicious.

I have no photo of the lime. The plant looks just as a fingerlime. The fruit was quite red externally. Internally, it was not fully red, a mixture of light green and light red. I do not know if it was not fully ripe. I harvested it when it dropped. Perhaps it dropped too early because of cool temperature?

I have this tree also. I suspect to be Red Champagne
