Buddhas Hand

Description

• The Buddha’s Hand (Citrus medica var. sarcodactylis) is perhaps the most visually stunning citrus in existence. It produces no juice and no pulp-only a magnificent, floral-scented zest and sweet pith.
• Because the fruit can be quite heavy and the tree’s growth can be lanky, grafting it onto Flying Dragon is a brilliant move. It provides the structural “anchor” and dwarfing control needed to display these “fingered” fruits like living pieces of art.
• Part sculpture, part citrus, the Buddha’s Hand is prized for its incredible, “room-filling” fragrance and its unique, multi-fingered shape. Traditionally used as a symbol of happiness and longevity, this ancient citron is a staple in high-end zest-work, candying, and infused spirits.
