The guava tree is a highly attractive tree. The leaves and flowers are both mildly fragrant and attractive. The guava tree, if grown in-ground will grow to a height up to 12 feet in tropical regions. The tree will grow to a smaller size in a container. The tree produces white 1-inch size flowers. The guava fruits are about 5 inches in diameter; either oval, round or pear-shaped, and the ripe fruit has a rich pungent smell that spreads quickly in the house. The taste of the fruit varies from sour to sweet, depending on its variety. This fruit plant requires very little maintenance. Firstly, it should get sunlight for more than 6 hours a day. Secondly, water it when the soil seems dry. Prune the tree regularly and add fertilizer after each harvest. We offer an Organic Potting mix that boosts the plant’s growth and makes it more resilient in fighting diseases.
