JUJUBE FOR SALE IN MELBOURNE says... Hi MaryT, I have both strawberry and yellow guava trees and I found that the yellow one has less seeds, bigger fruits and much sweeter. I found that if you pinch the top of new growth it will branch out and have flowers quicker that what I did with my strawberry plant. | About the Author JUJUBE FOR SALE 21st February 2012 8:45pm #UserID: 2706 Posts: 715 View All JUJUBE FOR SALE's Edible Fruit Trees |

MaryT says... Thanks for the tip, Jujube; I sure feel like pinching it. :) Amanda I only have one yellow cherry guava and one strawberry guava (a Diggers dud) and can't answer your question. I'm lucky with the yellow cherry as Mike said they're the least flavoursome of guavas. No he said they are the least flavoursome of the guavas he has. | About the Author MaryT Sydney 21st February 2012 10:43pm #UserID: 5412 Posts: 2066 View All MaryT's Edible Fruit Trees |

MaryT says... If you look at my photo at the top of the thread you can see a five cent piece to give you an idea of the fruit (pingpong ball size). As for the tree, I have mine in a pot and it's about 1.5m from the soil which means it is out of my reach at the top so I'll cut it back. Full of fruit at the moment tho' still small and hard. Is that what you want to know? | About the Author MaryT Sydney 18th December 2012 11:30am #UserID: 5412 Posts: 2066 View All MaryT's Edible Fruit Trees |

amanda says... Mike..I found my yellow cherry guava plants were not as vigorous as the red..? They didn't seem to grow as "prettily" either..? A bit haphazard - I thought it might be because they were too busy making impressing loads of fruit (far more than the reds) to grow properly..? Do you find that too..? Also - do the yellows come true to type from the seeds of a very isolated yellow parent plant..? | About the Author amanda19 Leschenault (160kms south of Perth) 20th December 2012 12:12pm #UserID: 2309 Posts: 4607 View All amanda19's Edible Fruit Trees |
MaryT says... Amanda my yellow cherry is productive but the red strawberry just grows and sprawl everywhere, flowered this year but no fruit (there may be one or two still hanging on). I have bossed it right back so hopefully it'll take the warning seriously. Mike like Amanda I would like to know whether the yellow cherry would grow true from seeds. I like mine so much perhaps I should start some seedlings or take some cuttings just in case. How long do they live for? | About the Author MaryT Sydney 20th December 2012 12:28pm #UserID: 5412 Posts: 2066 View All MaryT's Edible Fruit Trees |
