Where Do Most Nuts Grow

Most nuts grow on trees and bushes, but some nuts (such as peanuts) grow underground. Most nuts (such as cashews, pictured below) grow inside a soft casing that hardens into a shell.

Where do nuts grow in Australia?

The main production regions are the Central Tablelands, near Orange, and Narrandera (New South Wales); and around Myrtleford, north-east Victoria. They are also grown in central and Eastern Victoria and increasingly in northern Tasmania.

Which nuts grow in the ground?

While real nuts grow on trees, peanuts grow in pods that mature underground; other types of legumes, such as lentils and peas, also grow beneath the surface. Additional nut frauds include cashews, walnuts, pistachios, and almonds.
