Finger orange planting conditions and growth environment requirements

Introduction to Finger Orange

Finger lime originally grows in Australia. It is a wild fruit that is very sour and has very small flesh. It is known as the caviar of fruits and can be made into sauce and vinegar. After eating it, it can dispel bad gas in the stomach and intestines, help digestion and relieve gas, remove floating wind in the stomach, stop nausea, and relieve hangover.

Finger lime is also called finger lemon and Australian finger orange. Currently common varieties of finger lime include early-ripening finger lime, late-ripening finger lime and other varieties.

Finger orange planting conditions

Finger lime prefers a warm, sunny environment, and has very low cold tolerance. It will grow poorly below 10 degrees and easily cause leaf fall.

The average temperature for finger lime is maintained between 15 and 18 degrees, and the most suitable temperature for its growth in winter is between 17 and 19 degrees.

Suitable areas for growing finger lime

Finger lime was originally distributed in Australia and New Guinea, growing in tropical rainforest areas. Later, it was introduced for cultivation in a few countries such as France, the United States, and Japan.

Finger orange planting time

Finger lime likes a warm environment and is usually sown in spring, specifically in March or April. At this time, the temperature rises and the air humidity is relatively high, which is suitable for the growth of the plant.

Benefits of finger lime cultivation

Finger lime has very good value and can be used as food, medicine, or economy. This fruit with a unique shape and flesh can nourish the stomach and intestines and can help sober up. It has a moderately sweet and sour taste and can be eaten or made into a drink or medicine for auxiliary treatment.

At present, there are not many areas in our country that grow finger limes, and the output is low, so most of it has to be imported. Therefore, planting it can bring greater economic benefits. This is the reason why things are valuable because they are rare. Otherwise, we can only use fruits imported from Australia.
