Detailed Description:
Pineapple Guava is a versatile evergreen shrub valued for both its ornamental qualities and its edible fruit. Silvery gray-green leaves add year-round texture, while late spring brings showy flowers with white petals and red stamens—petals are edible and sweet. In fall, green egg-shaped fruit ripens with a unique tropical flavor. While capable of reaching 10–15 feet if left alone, in most landscapes Pineapple Guava is maintained at 4–6 feet, making it an excellent choice for borders, screens, or mixed edible gardens. Hardy to about 15°F, it tolerates heat, drought, and poor soils, providing both beauty and productivity with minimal care.
