I don't know specific times but a friend has multiple trees and I believe his trees bloom in early Spring  (March/April?) and harvests late Summer/early Fall?

I have about 50 macadamia trees, different varieties, and they bloom in early spring (Feb) and the nuts are maturing and falling now (Nov-Dec).  I pick up the fallen ones daily.

Interesting! Here, my little air layered tree is flowering and setting fruit right now. So like 9-10 months then, I guess - July/August.

So how long will it take my tree to start bearing? It bloomed a little last year for the first time, the tree is three years in the ground and is about 8 feet tall.
