While Hawaii is today home to 90% of the world’s macadamia nut production, macadamia nuts are not a native plant. Macadamia nuts are native to Australia and were brought to Hawaii by William Purvis. Purvis was an early British investor in sugar plantations. Not all of Purvis’s interventions were quite so successful. He imported mongooses to control the rat population on sugar plantations. Mongooses later became an invasive pest.
