Have you ever had a guava fruit? Are you growing guavas?

We have a guava tree with it’s first fruit and it is loaded! Never have eaten a guava yet so thank you for the information!

Fun video. I have a relative in Fallbrook who has one. He never has any guavas when I go visit!😆(its after the season). Have you ever been up to Exotica Rare Fruit Nursery in Vista. Worth the drive. Interesting place.

Thanks! I have been there - Great place - I bought a Sapote tree from them - then my irrigation failed and it died - Hoping to get another this year

I do y have a Guava tree but would love to have some. Problem is I live in Missouri when winters can be harsh.

How do you prevent squirrels? I am in OC and the squirrels dominate my yards.

[@RaysBackyard]

Sorry for the late reply - My 2 dobermans keep the squirrels out!

@@RaysBackyard I recently adopted a kitty, hope he can protect the yard too.😀

Just bought one from the market but it's green and way bigger then yours. I'm nervous to eat it now after seeing yours.

Do you have a papaya? If it is a guava maybe let it soften a little. Good luck!!!
