Pruning Feijoa in very early spring (forum)

Hi. I have transplanted my Feijoa tree from its pot to the ground. I was wondering if I prune it now, do I get fruit in next autumn. So in other words, does Feijoa fruit on current spring/season growth? Thanks

Yes youre absolutely right, the flowers and fruit develop on new growth. I find they need very little pruning except to make sure you train your feijoa to a single trunk. They do tolerate being cut back heavily, and can even be adapted to a hedge. You can cut one of the main branches back, near the trunk, after fruiting to encourage new growth
