The Tropic Pink Guava (Psidium guajava 'Tropic Pink') is sure to make your mouth water. There's no doubt that this variety produces some of the most dramatic Guava fruit, the lime-green skin and pink flesh. Go ahead and quench your thirst for some tasty Guava with a Tropic Pink Guava tree.

Like all Guava, Tropic Pink appeals to the senses. It has vibrant skin and flesh, smells floral, tastes sweet, and offers a soft and silky texture with a hint of crunch from its seeds. This rare find produces petite fruits that transform from green to bright yellow as they mature to full ripeness. Its fruit can be more round to ovular and its skin varies from smooth to bumpy.

If you've never tasted Guava, you're missing out. Guava tastes amazing when chilled and sliced, but many people make their extras into preserves since they're so high in pectin.

Because of its delightful shape, size, and attractive appearance, you will want to plant your Tropic Pink in a prominent area of your yard. It makes a wonderful specimen tree that will elicit compliments from the neighbors when it blooms with fuzzy white fragrant flowers in summer or shines with bright yellow fruit in winter.
