Guava Tree

7" POT

Guava Tree, botanically known as Psidium guajava, is a tropical fruit tree prized for its sweet, aromatic fruits and lush evergreen foliage. Native to regions from Mexico through South America, this compact tree produces round to pear-shaped guavas with rich, juicy flavour — perfect for eating fresh, blending into smoothies, or using in desserts and preserves. It grows on a small tree with a wide, rounded canopy and a sturdy, single or multi-stemmed trunk. In colder climates, Guava makes an excellent patio plant in summer and can be overwintered indoors with bright light and warmth.

Guava Tree loves as much sun as possible. The best spot for them is where they can see the sun during the majority of the day.

Guava Tree will do their best and flower profusely in bright light. A nice bright place outside would be on a sunny balcony, deck, or backyard; inside your home, it would do best in a sunny window sill. Remember that plants will grow and flower based on how much light they receive.

Guava Tree needs to be watered when the top half of the soil is dry to the touch. That usually takes about 1 week in an average home environment. It will vary depending on the time of year, your environment and lighting conditions, but it's always safer to underwater or give the soil a check before you water again. Expect to water more often in brighter light and less often in lower light.

Guava Tree can live in any average home humidity condition and are fairly hardy.

You can feel comfortable having Guava Tree around your home in the potential case where your pet feels like nibbling on it. However, we typically recommend keeping your pets from eating any of your houseplants.
