Plant that tree I promise you it will be worth it! Save this for info and tips on Feijoa/ Pineapple Guava! and....take me back to Feijoa season already 😭 Luckily I have a stash frozen to ration until next year! I planted these trees 7 ish years ago and have since planted two more 🫣

One of the main reasons I love Feijoa so much is the nostalgia. Coming from New Zealand nearly every house has a Feijoa tree in the backyard. Before school we would fill our bags and share amongst the school bus on my 1 hour (each way!) ride to school.

A little info about Feijoa/ Pineapple Guava

💚 Evergreen dense and bushy
💚 Great for screening or privacy
💚 Edible hedge or a “fedge”
💚 The whole fruit is edible including the skin!
💚 Sweet perfumey pineapple guava flavour
💚 Edible petals
💚 Prolific producers!
💚 Green fruit is easier to hide from critters

Top tips!
⭐️ Buy a “named” variety for quicker more reliable harvests
⭐ Keep well mulched and watered in summer when fruiting!
⭐ Dont be afraid to prune them back after fruiting

With everything, it’s not all sunshine and rainbows - rats, birds, and fruit flies also enjoy these.
