🍷 Do you like guava juice? It’s packed with flavor!

🍉 Did you know you could enjoy fresh guava juice from your own tree?
It’s as easy as 1-2-3! All you have to do is plant your own guava tree.

🍉 The 1-3 gal plant will start fruiting for you in no time. And you can expect a large crop in just a couple of seasons.

🍉 Guava trees thrive in mild climates with frost-free winters, but can tolerate light frost once established. And if you live in a colder climate - no worries. Guava is the perfect container fruit tree. You can bring it inside during cold nights and still enjoy fresh fruit every year.

🍉 Just don't forget to water - guavas are heavy drinkers.
