My macadamia tree has spiny leaves like a Tetraphylla. But has 3 leaves per whorl like an Integrifolia. The flowers seem to be whitish. They haven’t developed fully yet.
I got this 10 ft 30 gallontree from a SoCal nursery. I was told that it’s an unknown cultivar. They were not even if it’s was grafted or a seedling. Has anyone seen a Macadamia tree with these characteristics.
If you show the new leafs emergin and the nut then it will be a lot easier since the two common species are not easily indestinguishable in my opinion.
The mature m. integrifolia I had fruit of had white flowers and similar leaf size.
M. tetraphylla tends to have pinkish flowers.
Enviromental factors also determine leaf size.
