Macadamia Maroochy 3.5lt

$34.99

A marvellous looking tree with lustrous, green leaves and racemes of fragrant, pink flowers in summer. Highly productive, delicious, small, creamy nuts with good flavour. Takes 4-5 years to first fruit and 7-8 months for the nuts to mature. Pollination by honey bees. Self-fertile but is more fruitful when cross-pollinated with a different variety. Excellent pollinator for Beaumont.  Grows approximately 6m high x 4m wide in 10 years.

Full sun. Best planted early spring in a fertile, well drained, sheltered site. Stake young trees to assist root development and protect from frost while young. Maintain good moisture content during nut growth to prevent nuts dropping. Prune to maintain desired shape and size, ensuring the canopy stays open to assist pollination by insects. Fertilise seasonally.
