I am Pineapple Guava. My family originated from Temperate South America
| I am hardy and beautiful ornamental shrub with the added benefit of edible flowers and fruit.
I naturally grow as a small dense rounded tree or large shrub and can be clipped to size and shape as desired. I bloom in early spring with showy red flowers with bright yellow stamens. Blooming is followed by oval shaped fruit which grow to about the size of a chicken’s egg and ripen in autumn. My flowers are edible and have a sweet and slightly spicy taste. My fruit is delicious and sweet with a complex flavour and a tangy pineapple aroma leading to the common name “Pineapple Guava”. Not only do I look good, smell good and taste great I am also hardy and easy to grow in a range of conditions. I tolerate coastal conditions and exposed locations. I make a great screening hedge. |
