Thai Guava

The Thai guava prefers a sunny, warm, and sheltered location in a tropical to subtropical climate. It is sensitive to frost and grows best with consistent warmth.

The soil should be loose, rich in humus, and well-draining. A slightly acidic to neutral pH value between approximately 5.0 and 7.0 is ideal. Regular moisture is preferred, but waterlogging should be avoided.

The plant grows as a shrub or small tree and usually reaches 3 to 8 meters in height (depending on pruning and variety). It typically bears its first fruits after about 2 to 4 years under good conditions.
