I'd never eaten a guava until this afternoon. I'd drunk guava juice before but this was the first time I'd eaten one. And they are delectably delicious! We have a large guava shrub growing on our fenceline and it's now in fruit and I had noticed a few ripe ones on it the other day. So this afternoon I picked a few nice looking yellow ones and ate a couple of them.
The flesh is pink and a little creamy with quite a few seeds. It's fantastic to sample fruit that grows on your own land.
Beautiful reddy-pink flesh and quite juicy too. We have planted about 5 varieties of guava over the past year or so and hopefully they will start fruiting in the next 12-18 months. I'm keen to grow finger-limes too in some quantity as their fruit is quite expensive. We have one that I put in shortly after buying here but it still is some way from fruiting I think.

They do look lovely. Unfortunately we can't leave guavas to ripen. In Sep 12 it was the squirrels and now it is the bats.
LOL.
Guavas are not for bats
