Whether you have a patio, windowsill, or small backyard, this compact guava tree delivers lush tropical foliage and delicious fruit—without taking over your space. With its dense, miniature leaves, the Micro Leaf Guava stands out from common guava types. The fine-textured foliage adds a unique look to any setting, while its fast-growing nature ensures you'll see results quickly. Once mature, this plant produces sweet, pink or white-fleshed guavas, packed with tropical aroma and flavor. It’s a true showstopper—ornamental and edible in one. This adaptable tree can be grown in USDA Zones 9–11 outdoors or kept in containers for indoor or seasonal growing in cooler climates. In containers, it typically grows 2–4 feet tall, while in the ground it can reach 6–8 feet if allowed. Great for patios, balconies, or sunny kitchens. Caring for your Micro Leaf Guava is simple: Plant in well-draining sandy or loamy soil, give it full sun, and water regularly until established. Prune lightly to shape or control size. In colder regions, bring it indoors during winter and enjoy it as a tropical houseplant. This plant is especially popular during spring and early summer—supplies are limited and restocks can take months due to slow propagation. If you’re looking for a compact fruit tree that combines beauty, productivity, and resilience, the Micro Leaf Guava is your perfect pick.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Florida Plants Nursery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50382820802843,"sku":"1MicroGuava","price":29.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0744\/1920\/8475\/files\/Microleafguava2.jpg?v=1750190809"},{"product_id":"live-red-strawberry-guava-plant-5-9-tall-psidium-cattleyanum-sweet-edible-fruit-tree-compact-indoor-outdoor-container-garden","title":"Live Red Strawberry Guava Plant (5-9\" Tall) - Psidium cattleyanum - Sweet Edible Fruit Tree - Compact Indoor\/Outdoor Container Garden","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhat You Will Receive: You will receive 1 Live Strawberry Guava Starter Plant, currently standing 5-9 inches tall.
