Notes
'EarliHart' pineapple guava (Feijoa sellowiana 'EarliHart') is a fruit for food gardens, hedges, and espaliers. It is hardy to USDA zone 7, or down to 0°F (-18°C). This plant likes full or part sun. The evergreen shrub has gray green leaves and white flowers with red accents in summer. The fruits taste like mint and pineapple. This cultivar ripens early, so it suits cool summer climates.
Pairs well with Pink Lady apple, Pistachio, and Lovage.
