Description
The fragrant flowers are followed by aromatic fruits with a sweet, fruity flavor

Whether grown as an evergreen shrub or small tree, Psidium 'Tropical Pink' Guava seamlessly blends beauty and bounty. The plant is not only prized for its fruit yield but also serves as a stunning addition to any edible landscape. The 'Tropical Pink' Guava is a summer spectacle, showcasing a dazzling display of soft white flowers nestled amidst a backdrop of lustrous green leaves. These fragrant blooms, appearing individually or in small clusters, are a magnet for bees and butterflies. The fruits that succeed these flowers mature in winter, boasting a greenish-yellow skin and succulent, salmon-pink pulp. The fruit's sweet, exotic flavor is a delightful fusion of passion fruit, strawberry, and pear.

The 'Tropical Pink' Guava is a versatile plant, making an excellent standalone specimen or a lush living wall with its thick foliage, offering ample privacy. It can be trained as an espalier or cultivated as a container plant. In an open garden, the 'Tropical Pink' can reach a height of 15 to 20 feet when fully grown, but can be pruned to maintain any desired size and shape. When grown in a container, the tree remains compact yet continues to bloom and produce full-sized fruits.

For optimal growth, the 'Tropical Pink' Guava thrives in sunny locations with organically rich, well-draining soil. This self-fertile tree doesn't require pollen from other varieties to bear fruit.

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.
