Notes:
Best planted with another Feijoa variety for cross pollination and heavy yeilds.
Feijoas fall naturally to the ground when ready and will store up to four weeks in a cool place.
Ripening times may be effected by seasonal variation.
Early ripening varieties can be grown in the South Island successfully
Plant any time, when stocks available, in full sun in well drained soil.
Prune after fruiting or to maintain shape. Great hedging plant.
