Garden uses

Notes

'Marion' pineapple guava (Feijoa sellowiana 'Marion') is a fruit for the food garden. It is hardy to USDA zone 7, or down to 0°F (-18°C). This plant likes full or part sun. It is grown for fresh fruit that tastes like mint and pineapple, with a thin skin and a high sugar content. You can train this evergreen as an espalier, a hedge, or a small specimen tree. It sets more fruit when another variety grows nearby to pollinate it.

Pairs well with Brown Turkey fig, Everbearing strawberry, and Sage.
