Dwarf Pineapple Guava

Pineapple guava, also known as Feijoa sellowiana or Guavasteen, is a beautiful evergreen tree or shrub with multiple landscape and edible benefits. It thrives in warm climates and is well-suited for home gardens and container growing on patios.

Some varieties are self-fertile, while others require cross-pollination for fruit production.

Even for self-fertile varieties, hand pollination increases fruit yield.

If pollinated, Pineapple Guava flowers produce wonderful edible flowers and fruit.

Edible flowers bloom in May, attracting pollinators.

The sweet, aromatic fruit ripens in late summer to fall and falls when fully ripe, but it can be picked early to prevent bruising.
