Hi Inoxa1 Your feijoa won't be in a hurry to grow now where the season is already changing and the growing times is almost over except in the tropics. Expect a lot of growth during spring onwards. I have 3 feijoas bought last spring and they have all more than doubled their sizes. Be patient and take good care of it and you will be rewarded accordingly. Happy gardening :-)

just pruned off the left branch as it was growing horizontally and i was worried for its future fruit set and breakage. The branch on the right is still growing straight so now i'm not sure which one i was as the leader they have created an even wider gap between the two hmmm
Innoxa1 says... [2276 days 3hrs ago]
kept central leader, top has grown a nice canopy during summer, hopefully it will branch out a little lower so the trunk isnt so long

Where did you find this variety of feijoa? Thought it was only a NZ variety.

Feijoa (Cutting) 9/10

Figbarron's Edible Fruits
Update: 3498 days 0hrs

Comments: - Got this unknown specimen on eBay. I originally had 2 but one died as it was rootbound although planting in a larger container did not seem to help. The other one is happily growing in Osmocote premium potting mix i have since added some, chicken pellets and some blood and bone as the pre-added fertilizer is about to run out. It has growin really well even during the winter. I am hoping for some fruit next year and will continually update on its progress

Feijoa - Unique 7/10

Becc1's Edible Fruits
Update: 3862 days 6hrs

Comments: -

I'm from Kaitaia (Nth Is) loved these since l can remember, l live in Geelong it's similiar to Whangarei only on a bigger scale, most people here have never heard or tasted feijoa's.

l actually stumbled on a tree by accident in the middle of Geelong City, people were watching me knock the friut off the tree as l'm slightly short.

2 dozen later very happy and it's only by accident l came across your page even happier.

I ate most of these natural and had a crack at a fejoa, carrot cake (using carrot cake receipe) it didn't last long.

I want to have a go at growing a feijoa tree, and if it does work out l'll try another plant.

Feijoa - Mammoth (Grafted) 6/10

Justin1's Edible Fruits
Update: 3907 days 4hrs

Comments: -

One of these is doing fairly well.  Another is very slow to grow, probably because it is planted in an area where a gum tree (street tree) has roots.  It's also fairly exposed (the one doing better is protected a bit by a fence).  I am tip pruning to encourage bushiness as it will be part of a hedge. However, I wasn't aware beforehand that the graft would be so high so I may have to do something to deal with the gappy hedge that is sure to result.

UPDATE: One of these died in the harsh summer (multiple days > 40 and no rain). The other is ok and producing a fair amount of fruit.  My advice for most evergreen trees in Melbourne is make sure they get a decent amount of shade in summer.

Planted: 2008

Height 1 metres

Growing: In the Ground

Qty: 2

Fruit Harvest: 3 kilograms per Year

Sun/Shade: Medium Sun

Water Given in: Winter

Pollination: Cross Pollination

Cross Pollinator Variety: Apollo

Fertiliser or Organics Used: manure, B

When I Fertilise: Spring

Pest Control:

Sometimes caterpillars eat the new leaves.  I pick them off periodically.
