Do Macadamia nuts grow in the US?

A macadamia nut is a very hard-shelled nut which is very tasty either raw or roasted. It is native to the eastern coast of Australia, where it is popular, either eaten alone or in cooking. The macadamia nut is also known as the "Queensland nut" or, in some area, "bauple nut" (pronounced "bopple").

Macadamia nuts grow best in a sub-tropical climate, and they are now cultivated in Hawaii as well.
