I've never seen "lime mortar" for sale.
Depending on what you bought, it might take some weeks to get
the lime ready for use.

Lime Putty Mortar, bought in a 25Kg tub, ready to use.

Wow, how reactionary - I'd probably have gone 1:1:6, but then

the lime putty with sand, and protect it while it cures?

No it is pre-mixed.
