    We recently travelled to Hawaii and couldn't stop eating them on our hikes. I was shocked to find that these are considered invasive! Thank you for this video!

    We go blackberry picking/foraging here in England. I couldn't imagine being able to forage Strawberry Guavas. The trees look so bountiful.

    Thank you for that video! Here is South Africa we call them Chinese guavas. Not sure why. I've got one fruit which I'm hoping to grow seedlings from. It's autumn here so I'm going to try to plant some and keep them on a heat mat. I hope I get it right!

    Are the seedlings true to to be exactly like the mother plant? Are they cold hardy? Thank you

    • @ThePlantCollector
      @ThePlantCollector  2 роки тому +1

      I'm not sure about the seedlings being true to the mother plant but I would think they are because there are so many out here in Hawaii and they pretty much all fruit. Birds eat the guavas and poop the seeds out everywhere! I believe low 60's maybe mid-high 50's farenheit would be all they could take. I'm no plant expert but these are just my general observations 👍 Otherwise I'll put an update up if/when my guava trees fruit.

    Can you share who h fertilizer you used?

    • @ThePlantCollector
      @ThePlantCollector  2 роки тому

      I didnt use any fertilizer...only what is already in the soil. Miracle Gro potting mix 👍 I guess you can use miracle gro fertilizer if you want to add more.

    The other seedlings grew with the strawberry guavas looked like tamarind plants.

    • @ThePlantCollector
      @ThePlantCollector  2 роки тому +1

      Yes they do! However they're actually "weeds" that have similar looking foliage. Every plant serves a purpose 🙏

      I'll eventually experiment grafting guava trees and try growing from cuttings in the future but this video was on growing from seeds and to show how the guavas look.
