Acca sellowiana - Pineapple Guava

£7.90

The Pineapple Guava is widely cultivated in subtropical regions and is a tolerant species that will survive light frosts. The Acca sellowiana is an evergreen shrub or small tree with fairly large, pink flowers that have numerous decorative red anthers. The green coloured (even when ripe) fruits are egg sized and "apple"-like in appearance, having a sweet, juicy pulp around the seeds (sometimes the small fruits are eaten in full, after peeling the skin). We have strong seedling plants which means that the shape and size of fruits varies somewhat. Surprisingly rarely offered, an underrated plant which has a great ornamental value.

Add that personal touch with our bespoke gift wrapping service and choose from one of our luxurious wrapping papers. We will also enclose a card with your own personal message.
