Not everyone is lucky enough to live where they can grow one of the most enchanting fruits in North America: guava! The Tropic White Guava (Psidium guajava \’Tropic white’) is both splendid in appearance and fruit flavor. This sweet and slightly acidic variety seems to glow in the sun.
The Tropic White Guava receives its name from its white flesh. These guavas have bright yellowish green peels and creamy white meat. While this variety has slightly larger seeds than some others, it does have some of the best-balanced sweetness and largest fruit. This variety can produce fruit between 3 and 4-inches in size.
How does the Tropic White Guava compare to other guava varieties? The Tropic White Guava begins fruiting early in its life, even as young as one year of age. If you like a tree that is super fertile and produces a large number of fruits, the Tropic White Guava is a great choice. It has smooth pulp and is sweeter, and it also creates a pleasant, powerful sweet scent.
When summer arrives, the Tropic White Guava will gift you with pleasant white flowers with fluffy white stamens and a sweet fragrance. While this self-fruiting tree doesn’t need a partner for pollination, pollinators like bees and butterflies love these flowers.
To keep your Tropic White Guava happy, plant it in a sunny spot in your yard. It makes a lovely specimen tree that will provide a puddle of shade. Its medium green but thick leaves make it an ideal choice for a spot near the edge of your yard.
Or use the Tropic White Guava to treat yourself to a fruiting, floral background hedge.
The Tropic White Guava does best in subtropical conditions. It prefers medium moisture soil and adapts to a wide variety of soil types. They can survive short drought conditions but enjoy regular waterings.
The tender skin of the guava makes it hard to find in fruit markets and stores. If you love the flavor of this tropical fruit, grow your own with a Tropic White Guava. Buy one today!
