Psidium ‘ Yellow Cherry ‘ Guava

Yellow Cherry Guava (Psidium cattleianum var. lucidum), also known as Yellow Strawberry Guava, is a small evergreen fruit tree valued for its sweet, aromatic fruits and attractive foliage.

The tree grows to about 2–4 meters in height and has glossy, dark green leaves with smooth reddish-brown bark. It produces small white flowers with prominent stamens, followed by round to oval yellow fruits. The fruits are usually 2–4 cm in diameter, with thin yellow skin and soft, juicy flesh. The flavor is sweet with a mild tropical aroma, less acidic than common guava.

Yellow cherry guava grows well in tropical and subtropical climates, preferring full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil. It is hardy, drought-tolerant once established, and suitable for home gardens, pots, and small orchards. The tree starts fruiting within 2–3 years.

The fruits are rich in vitamin C and antioxidants and can be eaten fresh, or used in jams, jellies, juices, and desserts. Its compact size, attractive look, and tasty fruit make yellow cherry guava a popular choice for backyard gardening.
