red lime tasted awful to me, like pinesol similar to sweet lime.

As of now Australia's vibrant beautiful cultivars just aren't available stateside. Down under has vibrant crimson red, bright green and even yellow finger limes for sale - It's odd no big citrus repository has taken interest in as I don't think they're patented. Perhaps some industrious person could breed some or someone with the permits and certificates could laboriously import seeds but until then US stock of australian citrus is pretty undiverse.

I think the trouble is that the quarantine states (CA, AZ, TX, FL) are focused on juice crops, and well... Australian citrus are almost completely useless for that. So you can sometimes find them in the hobby/ornamental states, but not the commercial ag states, and it's hard to pass stuff in and out of the quarantine.
