Discover Psidium longipetiolatum Seeds – Rare and Exotic Guava
Introducing Psidium longipetiolatum, also known as araca vermelho, a captivating species from the Myrtaceae family thriving on the picturesque hillsides of Brazil’s Atlantic Forest. Standing 4–6 meters tall in its natural habitat and potentially soaring to 30 meters under cultivation, this guava variety is a true botanical gem.
Unique Growth and Fruit Profile Imported directly from Brazil, these seeds offer a rare opportunity to cultivate a guava variety reminiscent of strawberry or lemon guava but with a robust growth habit. While its stature mirrors its familiar counterparts, Psidium longipetiolatum boasts a distinct flavor profile and ornamental appeal. Flowering abundantly from January to March, it yields bold-tasting fruits that are unparalleled in taste.
Cold-Hardy and Ornamental Originating from Brazil and Argentina, this species demonstrates remarkable cold hardiness, reportedly surviving temperatures as low as zone 8b. Its round leaves add to its ornamental charm, making it a captivating addition to any garden landscape.
Exceptional Flavor and Characteristics I had the pleasure of tasting this new species today, cultivated from seed over three years. The tree bore its first fruits this summer, reaching a height of 1.30 meters. The flavor is distinct from the araza rojo, with a tangier, more robust lemon-like taste that balances acidity with sweetness. Notable differences include the yellowish pulp, tougher consistency, and resilience to impact, distinguishing it as a unique and resilient variety.
