My Edibles: Feijoa Trees QLD

Feijoa - Triumph

Comments: -

I finally have feijoas!!!!!!  After being very patient and waiting over 5 years for my 3 Bunnings un-named seedlings to flower and fruit.......I gave up and pulled them out, and purchased one each of the mammoth and triumph grafted varieties.  One (not sure which as I lost the labels) has fruited in it's second year and has about 5 fruit on.

Will have to bag them shortly to keep the pesky fruit fly out.

Pollination: No

pretty tree, only needed a stake to help hold it up so far. Full of flowers and I think if we are lucky, we might get some fruit this season.

The trees have beautiful foliage and the tree is very hardy. I originally had 5, two which I bought from bunnings and three from a local nursery. I am not sure what type any are. The two from bunnings do not seem to be doing as well as the other three.

this grows quickly, has branches from ground level and is also called the pineapple guava. I planted it for a kiwi friend who misses them from home. It hasnt fruited yet but it grew so well I planted a mixed guava hedge along my side fence. If I can keep my hubby away from the wippersnipper it will look good (it currently has 4 gaps!)

I bought 4 plants because I needed a low bush with nice folliage and fruit and flowers are a bonus. The decription of a pineapple-strawberry flavour sounded fantastic, but when I finally tasted some from the shops it tasted like sweetish mouldy cardboard. Lets hope if I eventually get fruit they will taste better! At least the plants a very hardy and have tolerated some very dry conditions where they are.

I have just started planting fruit trees on our 1/2 acre block - the Feijoa will make a nice addition and will help make our ice smoothies taste great!
