Description
A handsome ornamental tree with small white, flowers blooming throughout the year, but more heavily in spring. Seed pods produce an edible almond-like nut, hence the common name. Prefers well-drained, moist soil and is salt tolerant, so suitable for coastal locations.
Sowing Advice
These seeds have already been thoroughly cleaned and cold-stored for several months. They should be sown into a well-drained, sandy compost at any time of the year, and covered thinly with sand or grit and kept moist. Keep at between 15 and 20 degrees C. Germination usually occurs within 4 to 6 weeks although some seeds may take much longer.
