Bring the tropics to your garden with a Pineapple Guava Tree (Feijoa Sellowiana)! Originating from South America, this tree not only adds beauty to your landscape but also provides delicious and nutritious fruit. This listing is for a starter plant, approximately 5-9 inches tall, ready to be nurtured into a thriving tree.

The Pineapple Guava fruit is known for its unique flavor, often described as a blend of pineapple, guava, and mint. This fruit is packed with vitamins and minerals, offering numerous health benefits such as aiding in weight loss, improving digestion, lowering cholesterol, and boosting the immune system. The edible flowers, blooming in late spring, add a spicy touch to salads and other dishes.

This Feijoa Sellowiana plant thrives in zones 8-10 and can spread 10 to 15 feet. It blooms in early summer and produces fruit in the late fall. Remember, the plant you receive will be a starter plant and may vary in size and fullness from the images shown. It will be shipped in its pot and is recommended to be planted in a 4″ pot for the first 6 months to promote healthy root development.

Important Considerations: If purchasing during fall and winter, the plant may arrive dormant or semi-dormant, with few or no leaves. This is perfectly normal, and the plant will begin to grow new leaves in the spring. We ship plants on Tuesdays and Fridays and answer messages on Mondays and Thursdays. Please ensure you can retrieve your package promptly upon delivery to avoid damage from extreme temperatures. We ship only within the United States.

We take pride in providing healthy, well-rooted plants. In the rare event that your plant arrives dead or badly damaged, please contact us with photo proof within 24 hours of delivery for a replacement. Minor leaf damage or branch breakage does not constitute serious damage. Thank you for choosing us for your gardening needs!
