Feijoa Feijoa sellowiana

Feijoa sellowiana, commonly known as Brazilian Guava or Pineapple Guava, is one of the original Feijoa varieties from which many new varieties have been bred. This late-season producer bears fruit in autumn, which is medium-sized and very tasty. This evergreen shrub typically grows to 3 m tall and 2 m wide but is often trimmed to smaller sizes. Feijoa sellowiana is commonly grown for fruit production, trimmed into a hedge, used for screening, or added to a mixed planting. We recommend planting at least two varieties to provide for a more extended fruiting period and ensure better pollination.

Planting and Caring for Feijoa Trees in Tauranga

Feijoa trees tauranga locals plant will prosper in well-drained soil, with a few hours of full sun each day. Dig in plenty of compost and mulch well to promote moisture retention and root health. Water your tree during the dry summer months, and prune lightly after fruiting to maintain shape. For the best fruit set, plant two or more different varieties, although self-fertile options like Feijoa 'Unique' are ideal where space is limited.
