I picked this guava up last year. Going with a twin trunk design. I repotted in a pond basket. Seperated the trunks a bit with guy wire. Next, grow baby grow!

First purchased:

After trim today a spin around clockwise:

Wish I had seed of the Guava type we have, it is
like the zelkova of Guava.
Will ask around and if I get will let you know.

If you would put that much effort into a Guava,
and it looks good.
I can only imagine what you would do with the one down here.
I believe it is originally from Brazil,, so a possible zone
9 to 10.
Encourage, encourage.

That's awesome. Don't see many guava, let alone a twin trunk. They grow like crazy in Dallas. Good fun tree to work on for sure. Looking forward to seeing its progress.
