Just lately we've been harvesting from our #macadamia trees. We only have three, but this year they've really been outdoing themselves! Several net bags worth harvested so far, and the nuts within are plump and delicious.

@ShayneParkinson I'm so jealous right now. I love macadamias but not the price. It's too cold for us to grow trees.

@craftygardennz Yes, they're so pricey! It's very satisfying to be getting a decent crop. I'm going to be looking smugly at those expensive little packets next time we're in the supermarket.

There are lots of things I'd love to grow but can't (winters are too mild; generally too wet and humid), but the macadamias are definitely a success.
