Macadamia G6 (Cutting)

Comments: -

This is the so called Home Beauty G6 Macadamia

Planted Cutting which I think may be a Birdwood plant? Has kicked on well with several flushes already

2nd year in it has stopped growing height but is thickening up and growing branches - leave down low are quite long and some grow weird and twisted but leaves are getting smaller towards the apex - anyone know what causes gnarly twisted leaves? could it be bugs munching new growth as leaves form?

Worked out twisted leaves are due to cold but has acclimatised now and is holding 20 nuts March 2019 photo - tree seems to have topped out at 4.5 to 5mt which it is supposed to.do? Lets see? 2020 should be a way bigger crop?

Planted: 2013

Pollination: Cross Pollination

Question:

Anybody know what causes  Macca leaves to grow twisted and Gnarley looking??

Planted in 500cm pot - tends to show variagated new leaves that turn green later - does anyone else get this on theirs?

Update 30/7/2015 Found first flowers on Macca - one spray about to bloom that was hidden with a few more forming - hoping for some nuts before winter 2016.

Hi Mark - I've found the same on my dwarf macadamia - new leaves definitely look variegated. Grateful it's not just me!

Use a low phosphorus native fertiliser will help Mindy1

I planted 3 years ago in the front yard which is west facing getting full sun. It's doing very well.  It has survived 2 wet cold winters.  It has not produced any nuts yet, it's still very young.  I give it seasol twice a year, spinkle cow manure once a year and have also spinkled some slow release fertilizer.

Early days still, establishing itself. Good growth and stood up well to the blistering heat of the 2008 summer, while it got a little scorched it recovered very quickly
