This is the bowl I used last year. It holds enough finger limes for a cheesecake. You couldn't even tell that some were missing from the tree.
Total 2013 Finger Lime Harvest: 5.5kg of fruit. YUM!
In contrast, the other tree produced zero fruit. Drought periods saw it suffering from brown scale, which I treated with Pestoil and a prune of the most seriously encrusted branches. We'll see in spring whether it recovers or dies, I guess. There was also scale on the mandarin and the Tahitian limes but they seem to have fruited regardless, which just goes to show that pests are a symptom of unhealthiness (no water, clay soil, sloping position, etc) rather than the cause.
