Harvesting My First Pink Guavas From Our Tree!!!

in #homesteading7 years ago (edited)

Good afternoon, Steemians!

I'm so excited to show you my pink guava tree's first harvest! We planted this tree about 6 months ago and already have fruit! The tree cost $50, that much I remember. I believe we got it from Lowe's, but it could've been The Home Depot.

Just before I harvested them - the smell coming off them was incredible!

Reppin' Steemit! - You want the guava skins to start turning yellow and a pungent beautiful smell to be emitted before you pick!

Nice!
Did you plant that tree indoors or outdoors?

Outdoors :) I don't have space inside for trees lol

What sort of climate do you live in?
I think guavas require some warm temperatures.

South Florida (sub tropical)
