Planting & Care

Features unique, finger-like fruit resembling the artistic representations of Buddha's hand.
Brings a striking visual appeal to any patio or garden space.
While decorative, the fruit's peel and pith can be candied, zested for vinaigrettes, or used for fragrant syrups.
Produces aromatic white flowers that contrast beautifully with its large, olive-green leaves.
Symbolises prosperity and joy in many Asian cultures, making it a delightful home addition.
Supplied in an EcoPot™, using 70% less plastic for better root growth and durability.
Expertly pruned before shipping to encourage a robust, well-shaped, and fuller tree.

Flowering Time: All year round
Harvest Time: All year round

Pruning: Prune lightly.
Tasting Notes: Mild, fragrant pith with little acidity.
Uses: Candy the peel, zest for baking, or slice to make marmalade.

Planting: Plant in loamy, well-drained soil or a specialist citrus potting mix. Ensure good drainage, adding perlite if needed. Plant 2-3m apart to allow for spreading.
Position: Requires a position in full sun.
Watering: Water throughout the year. In winter, allow the top layer of soil to dry out partially before watering again. Water more regularly in summer, especially in hot conditions, and mist daily to increase humidity.
Feeding: Apply a citrus-specific fertiliser weekly or fortnightly throughout the year, following product instructions.
Pruning: Requires little pruning. Remove any damaged, diseased, or overcrowded branches to keep the tree healthy and neat.
Overwintering: As a tender plant, it must be brought into a frost-free location like a conservatory or greenhouse for the winter.
