Do you know about a lime called 'Buddhas hand'? (An unusual looking lemon). A Buddha's Hand Citron looks like a lumpy lemon with fingers and smells like awsome. The citron, may have been brought to China from India by Buddhist monks and cultivated in ancient China near the Yangtze Valley. In China and Japan, the hybrid, also known as the Fingered Citron, is served around the new year because it is believed to symbolize happiness, wealth and longevity. Historically, the powerful lavender scent also made the plant attractive for ornamental purposes. The fruit has little to no flesh (pulp) and no seeds, like most commercial fruit trees, it must be grafted to propagate.
