Macadamia - 246

Bought a 203 variety and a Beaumont as well. Other 2 are doing great but not this one. They looked same quality on delivery. Maybe it's bad luck as I applied the same planting practice for all of them. It's still alive and I have done the micro organism spray and pre tilled activated bio char and volcanic rock dust minerals before planting all of them. Maybe if it makes it through winter it would look good.
