Pink guava trees tolerate heat and moderate drought, making them ideal for sunny, well-drained areas like the Philippines.
Rich in vitamin C, fiber, and antioxidants, pink guavas are healthy for consumption. Their attractive pink flesh and light green skin also make the garden more vibrant and appealing, whether for home use or market sale.
- Nutritious and visually appealing
Pink guavas are naturally sweet, fragrant, juicy, and crisp, perfect for fresh eating, juices, salads, or desserts.
- Check the color and aroma – When the skin turns light pink to deep pink and the fruit emits a sweet, fragrant aroma, it’s ready to harvest. Avoid fruits that are still green or pale.
- Use scissors or pruners, don’t twist by hand – Always use clean garden shears to snip the stem about 2–3 cm above the fruit. Twisting by hand may bruise the skin and reduce shelf life.
- Harvest in the early morning or late afternoon – Avoid picking under harsh midday sun to preserve flavor and prevent the fruit from becoming soft. Cooler hours help maintain firmness and sweetness.
- Pick only when fully mature – Pink guavas do not improve significantly in sweetness after picking, so ensure the fruit is fully mature on the tree for the best taste and aroma.
- Store properly – After harvesting, keep guavas in a cool, dry place or refrigerate. Proper storage helps the fruit stay fresh and flavorful for up to 1–2 weeks.
