Guava Hawaiian - Pink Supreme (Cutting) ^8/10

Comments: -

Produces plenty of very tasty fragrant fruit with a mix of sweet with a hint of sour.  

Extra bonus - chewing of young leaves are an excellent remedy for diarrhea and stomach bugs. Well known remedy in Asia.

Too much trouble with fruit fly, and fruit bats and rats so have removed this tree to make room for others.

Comments: -

Plant arrived in Feb 2020 in great condition with soil still damp. Will plant this into a pot after 1-2 weeks outside and provide updates. It has been outside in its original pot for 5 days and already has new growth at the top.

May 2020 - Has continued to grow consistently since potting.  We will see how it copes with winter in Toowoomba - may have to bring it inside on cool nights. 

Winter 2020 - Brought to Brisbane over winter out of concern of frosts. A possum stripped the plant of every single leaf!

Spring 2020 - The tree has begun to grow new leaves and recover.

July 2021 - Has flowered for the first time.

September 2021 - Now in 45L planter bag. Holdiing onto two young fruit, we will see if they drop. Has survived 1x Toowoomba winter outside in pot (under shade cloth so frost couldn't settle)

Very Happy with the guava tree, Planted in 2018 started fruiting 2020, had few issues with fruit flies ( worms in fully ripen fruits) . Tried putting fine net bags around the fruits when they were young and voila didnt have the worm issue in those fruits..

 Has started fruiting again this year planning to buy a huge net bag to cover the tree and tie it( too many fruits to be putting individual bags)!
