Pineapple Guava Flowers but No Fruit

Pineapple guava (feijoa) can produce striking edible flowers but inconsistent fruit crops.

Pollination can improve fruit set

Fruitfulness varies by cultivar. Cross-pollination with another compatible plant can improve production for some selections, and birds and insects may assist pollination.

Don't prune away the opportunity

Heavy or poorly timed pruning can reduce flowering wood. Balance hedge appearance with fruit-production goals.
