Macadamia 'Beaumont' produces new leaves that are red-maroon in color, and bright-pink flowers that bloom from spring to summer. It begins bearing macadamia nuts at a young age and continues to improve with age. The brown nuts, enclosed in a green husk, are typically borne from summer to autumn. Unlike some other cultivars, this one does not drop its own crop, so the nuts must be picked by hand. Although it is partially self-fertile, planting it with another macadamia cultivar such as Macadamia 'GT205' or Macadamia 'GT207' can result in better crops. Macadamia 'Beaumont' is evergreen, not native to New Zealand, and an Australian selection that was trialled at the John H. Beaumont Agricultural Research Center in Hawaii, United States in the 1930s.

This is a general guide. When a plant flowers, fruits and colours up depends on the climate where you live and on the season. If timing matters, please reach out to our team.

Foliage Type

Evergreen plants retain foliage year-round but still shed and replace some leaves gradually as part of their normal growth cycle, rather than losing them all at once.

Deciduous plants shed all their leaves for part of the year (usually in autumn and winter), usually in response to colder temperatures or dry seasons, often producing seasonal colour before leaf drop.

Semi-evergreen plants sit between the two, keeping most of their foliage but losing some or all leaves briefly under cooler or drier conditions before quickly regrowing them.

Soil pH

When designing and planting your garden, it can be useful to know whether the soil is acid or alkaline, as different plants thrive in different soils. The soil pH is a number that describes how acid or alkaline your soil is. The soil pH scale will give you an idea of what soils a species will grow in.

Acidic soils have a pH below 7.0

Alkaline soils have a pH above 7.0

Neutral soils have a pH of 7.0
