Macadamia Grafted - 842

Macadamia 842 is a high-performing commercial variety selected for its heavy, consistent yields and strong branch structure. Known for its uniform nut size and high kernel recovery, it’s ideal for those wanting a productive tree that’s also beautiful in the garden.

Mulch well to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Can be grown in large pots or in-ground and responds well to shaping.

Perfect for growers seeking a reliable macadamia with good commercial traits, or home gardeners wanting a tree that’s both ornamental and highly productive. Best planted with a second variety nearby to improve yields.
