Product Details
Bunya Nut (Araucaria bidwillii) is a majestic, long-lived Australian native tree known for its massive edible nuts. It is a highly productive and drought-tolerant tree, making it an excellent choice for food forests and large gardens. The nuts, similar in texture to chestnuts, are a valuable bushfood with a rich history of use by Indigenous Australians.


Bunya Nut thrives in well-draining soil with a pH range of 5.5 to 7.5. It prefers full sun and is highly adaptable to various conditions, including dry periods. While it can reach towering heights of 30–45 metres, it can be pruned and maintained at 5–10 metres for easier management.


The tree produces large cones containing multiple nuts, typically after 10–15 years. Once mature, it can yield large harvests every few years in cycles. The nuts can be boiled, roasted, or ground into flour for baking, making them a highly nutritious and versatile food source.


Bunya Nut is slow-growing but highly resilient. It is best suited for large open spaces and requires minimal care once established. It can be grown in a 50L+ pot by year 5 but will need to be planted in the ground for long-term growth and nut production.


This is a must-have tree for those looking to grow a rare and valuable nut tree. Whether for food production, historical significance, or simply as an impressive shade tree, Bunya Nut is a unique and rewarding choice.
