- Product number: 640900
- Origin: South America
- Latin: Acca sellowiana, also known as Feijoa sellowiana
An evergreen shrub with a growth habit and leaf shape reminiscent of young olive trees. It's an easy container plant; ensure well-drained soil. The flowers will leave you speechless with their beauty: white petals with a substantial cluster of prominent, bright red stamens. These develop into blueberry-like, 8cm large fruits; the taste is fantastic: a cross between pineapple and strawberry! Even the flowers are edible and sweeter than many fruits.
