AMORENTIA

Macadamia Tree Nursery

SGASA Accredited Macadamia Tree Nursery

Macadamia Tree Nursery

We offer land-preparation, orchard development and planting-out advice as a value-added service to all our macadamia tree growers.

Amorentia Macadamia Nursery has propagated Macadamia Trees for over 50 years. We have enjoyed a long history of Macadamias and are proud of the role we play in the South African Macadamia industry, from the development of protocols and techniques, to dispatching millions of trees. Undoubtedly, we have contributed to South Africa’s status as the world’s largest Macadamia producer. At Amorentia, we aim for excellence.

Our Mother Tree Material originates from our own production blocks, where historical data confirms high-performing Mother trees. The ongoing result is that we offer our growers high-yield potential from the start. It also means that we control our propagation processes by not relying on third parties for scions or cuttings, eliminating the risk of cultivar confusion and the risk of contamination from dreaded pests or diseases.

These factors cannot be more relevant when considering the current risks to the Macadamia industry.

Cultivar Selection
