Found in drier types of subtropical rainforest north from Currumbin in Qld. It is not known to occur naturally in the wild in N.S.W.; however interestingly it has been recorded from Camden Haven but it is not known if the tree was cultivated or growing naturally.
Macadamia integrifolia and Macadamia tetraphylla are the two species cultivated for their fruit. In fact they are Australia's only edible species of Nut Trees.
These days however hybrids have been developed with special emphasis on fruit qualities and more recently Macadamia tetraphylla has been hybridised with Macadamia integrifolia to achieve smooth leaf margins pink flowers.

I doubt we are likely to ever again see these hand painted plant labels photographed here in the Australian Forest of the Royal Melbourne Botanic Gardens so I thought it wise to record their existance in these 2 images. April 2010
