Description

An evergreen tree that produces green leaves with fragrant, white/pink flowers which form into hard, woody, round fruits, inside which is a creamy white nut.

Also known as Bauple nut, Queensland nut or Nut oak.

Native to Queensland, Australia (and therefore requires Winter frost protection).

Recognised to be an excellent attractant and nectar source for bees and other beneficial insects.

Evergreen.
Reaches approximately 32 feet (10 metres) tall.
Slow-growing.
Requires winter frost protection.
Requires a well-drained soil.
