Macadamia Tree Nursery

Macadamia Tree Nursery

Amorentia Macadamia Tree Nursery – We are 5 star SAMAC accredited.

With 45 years of experience in macadamia tree and macadamia orchard development, we offer our growers invaluable advice and value-added service. We make every effort to stay ahead by utilising the latest technology in macadamia tree propagation.

As a result of our plant improvement scheme, only high yielding macadamia trees remain in our mother- blocks. Our strict selection of mother-material ensures even growth in the orchards with potentially high yielding trees, giving our growers the best possible start to their macadamia development. It also means that for all modern cultivars, we control 100% of our plant propagation process. In our booming macadamia industry, first generation Amorentia macadamia mother-material is highly sought after.

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