Psidium 'Tropical Pink' Guava

Psidium 'Tropical Pink' Guava is a versatile evergreen shrub that can also be grown as a small tree. It serves a dual purpose: not only does it yield delicious fruits but also adds a charming aesthetic touch to your garden. 'Tropical Pink' is especially delightful in the summer, when fluffy white blossoms beautifully contrast with its lush green leaves. Whether solitary or clustered, these fragrant flowers are magnets for bees and butterflies, enhancing your garden's ecosystem.

As winter approaches, flowers give way to appealing fruits with a yellow-green skin and succulent salmon-pink flesh. Each bite offers a unique blend of passion fruit, strawberry, and pear flavors, making it a delightful addition to your fruit bowl.

The 'Tropical Pink' Guava is an ideal specimen or a great option for creating a natural privacy screen with dense foliage. It can be trained as an espalier, grown in a container, or allowed to reach its full height of 15-20 feet in an open garden. Despite its size, it flowers and produces full-sized fruits even when container grown.

For optimal growth, this guava tree prefers a sunny spot with organically enriched, well-drained soil. It's a self-fertile variety, meaning it produces fruits even without cross-pollination.

This guava tree will ship at the appropriate planting time based on your growing zone but does not ship in December or January. Plant height is 18-24" when shipped.
