Guava

The Psidium guajava, commonly known as Guava, is a tropical evergreen fruit tree valued for its sweet, aromatic fruits and attractive foliage. It is widely grown in home gardens, orchards, and landscapes for both food production and ornamental value.

• Appearance: Forms a small to medium-sized tree with smooth, peeling bark, oval green leaves, white flowers, and round to pear-shaped fruits that ripen from green to yellow.
• Indoor/Outdoor Use: Best suited as an outdoor fruit and landscape tree in warm, sunny areas.
• Care: Prefers full sun, fertile well-draining soil, and regular watering during establishment and fruit development. Pruning helps maintain a manageable shape and encourages productive growth.
• Benefits: Produces edible, vitamin-rich fruit, provides shade, attracts pollinators, and works well in productive gardens and tropical landscapes.
