Finger limes are an unusual fruit that has caviar-like flesh and pops in your mouth. They come in all kinds of interior colors, and sound amazing. I've been trying to find some in California, but they're native to Australia and I haven't seen any even in specialty stores. Does anyone know where I might find them here?
It also sounds like the harvest is during the autumn/winter, based on the notes on the first one, so they'd be out-of-season now, so I doubt that you could get them grown in California anyway until late in the year. I have no idea whether they ship well, but if so, you're probably stuck looking for imports if you want them prior to that.
If you have an appropriate place to grow them, you might save the seeds from one if you can get one and plant them and have a tree yourself. It sounds like they do grow from seed (not like, say, the Hass avocado).
EDIT: One more trick. It's not as nice an interface for actually shopping as, say, Amazon or the like, but if you want to find something truly esoteric that you cannot find anywhere else, Google Shopping indexes a ludicrous number of retailer sites. My first search there found:
I have no idea where to find them. But if I ever find one I'm going to graft it in Malena (my Sicilian lemon tree), alongside the rangpur (fairly common where I live) and - once I find it - this one:
where are you, and how far/how did your finger limes travel to get to you? i have some in my garden (and the conditions here arent even ideal, I just really wanted them) and theyre delicious!
