Feijoa sellowiana fruit on a tree.

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.

Why Choose a Feijoa Tree?

Feijoa trees (Feijoa sellowiana) — also known as pineapple guava or guavasteen — are renowned for their sweet and tangy fruit, versatility, and resilience. These evergreen trees thrive across New Zealand, from the winter chills of the South Island to the sunny North. Feijoas are ideal for hedging, edible landscaping, or a feature tree in a compact backyard. By planting a mitre 10 feijoa tree, you gain a source of delicious fruit and add a decorative plant that attracts pollinators and birds.

Popular Feijoa Varieties in New Zealand

While mitre 10 feijoa tree stock often includes common cultivars, you can also explore a wider selection of varieties from specialist nurseries. Each variety has unique traits—fruit size, flavour, ripening times, and pollination needs—so choosing the right one is important.

Planting and Caring for Your Feijoa Tree

Whether you buy a mitre 10 feijoa tree or another feijoa variety, location and care are key to success. Feijoas need well-drained soil, full sun, and occasional feeding with a balanced fertilizer. Mulch heavily to retain moisture and suppress weeds, and water regularly during dry periods. Most feijoa trees are frost tolerant, but young plants benefit from shelter in colder regions. Pruning is rarely needed, though light shaping encourages airflow and easier picking.

Harvest and Uses

Feijoa fruit ripens from late autumn to early winter. Simply collect fruit that falls naturally, or gently twist ripe ones off the stem. Feijoas are delicious fresh, but they’re also fantastic in baking, jams, smoothies, and chutneys. Growing your own mitre 10 feijoa tree delivers fresh flavour and sustainable produce right at your doorstep.
