Macadamia - Tetraphylla (Seedling)

Comments: -

Delicious nut that is native to area where I live.  This is the prickly-leaf form. Nuts are sweeter raw but are not as good to roast as the smoother leaf form. Food source for Yellow-tailed Black Cockatoos.  Attractive and hardy tree.

It can grow in a pot. I rent so need a plant that is easy to move when I move. I am looking forward to making roasted garlic macadamia and also roasted chilli macadamia.

Comments: - My favourite nut of all time. After 1 year it has had very little growth and consistently yellow leaves. Thinking of moving it to a more protected position and giving it manganese in the new hole.

Dwarf Macadamia (Grafted)

Comments: -

Planted in part shade position, well mluched, watered etc. Was doing okay, then I gave it Seasol and it seemingly got burned and quickly died. Will check before Seasolling again. But in its place is a native gardenia who absolutely loves the trouble spot.

Dwarf Macadamia (Grafted)

Comments: -

Recommended for a small backyard, but extremely slow growing. Overhung by other plants now so probably not getting as much sun as it needs.

Little worried about the dogs swallowing the kernels and causing an obstruction. At the rate that this one is growing the dogs will be long dead and fertilising underneath it before it gets any kernals.
