Strawberry Guava

Photos are for illustration purposes only. Plant size and appearance may vary. We carry a range of sizes from starter plants up to 5-gallon containers.

Strawberry Guava is a compact, evergreen tropical tree that earns its name from the small, round, deep-red fruits it produces — bursting with a sweet, aromatic flavor reminiscent of strawberry and classic guava. Native to eastern Brazil, it has become a beloved backyard fruit tree across Florida and other warm climates, prized for its attractive glossy foliage, fragrant white blossoms, and exceptionally productive fruiting season. These starter plants establish quickly and begin bearing fruit at a young age, rewarding gardeners with abundant harvests perfect for eating fresh, blending into juices, or making into jellies and preserves. Compact enough for containers yet vigorous enough to grow into a small screening hedge, Strawberry Guava is one of the most versatile and rewarding tropical fruit plants available for the home garden.
