Known for their sweet aroma and refreshing tropical flavor, guavas are a favorite among fruit enthusiasts and home gardeners alike. These nutrient-rich fruits are an excellent source of fiber and contain up to four times more vitamin C than an orange.

Variety:

  • Mexican (Zones 9-11)
  • Pineapple (Zones 8-11)
  • Tropical Pink (Zones 9-11)

In general, guava should be planted in full sun for best growth and fruit production. These plants are well-adapted to warm subtropical to tropical climatic conditions. Ideal temperatures for growth and production range from 73°-82°F. Temperatures below 60°F or drought cause growth to slow or cease. Guavas do best with regular deep watering. The ground should be allowed to dry to a depth of several inches before watering again.
