  • · Release nutrients slowly, which helps plants over time.


🧪 Inorganic Fertilizers:

Araca Pera, Brazilian Guava tree (Psidium x angulatum)

🍷 What Guava variety is the best for Guava Vine
  • 🍷 Araca Pera, or Brazilian Guava tree (Psidium x angulatum), is a unique Guava hybrid of a flavorful wild guava from the Brazilian Amazon which is rare in cultivation.
  • 🍷 These fruit are 1.5-2", with an acidic, sour guava-like flavor. Its juice is concentrated and must be diluted and sweetened to produce a delicious drink.
  • 🍷 It is the major source of a special Guava Wine production. Our favorite Guava Wine is from Schnebly Redland's Winery - this is where we obtained the seeds from their mother plants. This refreshing and vibrant rose wine is full of flavor and has a bouquet that never stops.
  • 🍷 The fruit is processed into ice cream sorbet, gelatins and candies.
  • 🍷 A great container specimen or a bushy tree for frost-free gardens.

Ground Orchids

❔ Why do we love Ground Orchids?

❓ Q: I need your expert advice on a low growing perennial with pretty flowers that I can plant in semi-shade close to my house. What is your favorite perennial?

😊 A: Our most favorite bright flowering perennials are ground orchids!
  • 💋 Ground orchids are the easiest and most rewarding flowers for a tropical garden. They thrive in regular garden soil or potting mix, tolerate both sun and shade, and bloom nearly year-round.
  • 💋 Their adaptability makes them a perfect choice for any spot in the garden, whether you need to fill a sunny patch or a shaded area under trees.
  • 💋 And look at these colors! From vibrant purples to soft pinks and yellows, ground orchids bring a splash of tropical beauty with minimal effort. Their consistent blooming makes them a must-have for gardeners seeking color all year.
  • 💋 For profuse blooming, apply Sunshine Orchidasm - Orchid TotalFeed Booster.
