Pineapple Guava Seedling

Pineapple Guava (Feijoa sellowiana) is an evergreen multi-stemmed shrub has silvery green leaves and grows 8-10 feet tall. Hardy to 12° F, it can be grown successfully outdoors in parts of the South but the fruit ripens only in the warmer areas of the country. The large pink flowers petals each spring taste like cinnamon cotton candy and the 2" long silvery fruit combines the flavors of pineapple, banana and strawberry. This self-fertile bush grows well in a pot, getting about 4' tall and can be brought indoors in autumn to finish ripening the fruit. Sold in a one gallon pot.
