Guava-Acca sellowiana 'Waingaro'

Waingaro Pineapple Guava is an attractive small, multi-branched shrub or small tree with beautiful gray green, evergreen foliage with white undersides. Its showy, tropical-looking flowers are white with red accents with edible petals that taste like cotton candy. The delicious fruits that follow taste like mint and pineapple. It is easily trained as an espalier, hedge or small specimen tree. ‘Waingaro’ is a later-ripening, New Zealand-bred cultivar with large, sweet/tart, refreshing fruit with thin edible skin. Partially self-fertile but will produce more fruit when pollinated by another variety.
