The Sunrise Lime is the native Australian Finger Lime crossed with a kumquat. Developed by the CSIRO this is a rare and unique tree.
Suitable to be grown in the ground or in a pot it makes a special addition to your home garden or orchard. It’s an ideal gift for someone keen on gardening and growing their own!
The tree has pretty dusty dark green foliage and produces plenty of good sized thumb or pear shaped fruit in shades of golden yellow.
The Sunrise Lime is delicious when eaten fresh from the tree - skin and all. The skin is sweet whilst the inside is tangy. It’s very versatile and goes well in salads, with fish and shellfish, or used in preserves.
