An evergreen tree with deep-green, rounded foliage and thorny stems, D’Emerald is a cultivar in the Citrus Gems range – grafted to make the plants hardier. White flowers appear in summer, followed by aromatic, finger-shaped black fruits. D’Emerald will begin to ripen – but not fully – on the tree. Once picked, leave the fruit for five to ten days to completely ripen to produce bright, emerald green pearls of tangy juice. D’Emerald has a dense and bushy habit, making it perfect for creating hedges or screens in the garden. Please note: finger lime trees will begin to produce fruit from the second autumn of planting.

Soil: Plant in composted, well-draining soil. Mulch in spring and keep the soil moist in summer.
Conditions: Will perform best in a warm sheltered spot in full sun. Tolerant of frost and dry conditions.
Size: Height 3m x width 1.5-2m
