Varigated Guava
The Variegated Guava is a stunning ornamental variety prized for its striking foliage that displays splashes of cream, pink, and green across each leaf. This tropical shrub produces the same aromatic, vitamin C-rich guava fruit as traditional varieties, making it both a visual centerpiece and a productive addition to Indian home gardens. The plant thrives in warm climates and adapts well to container growing on balconies and terraces.
Expect white, fragrant flowers followed by small to medium-sized guavas with the characteristic sweet-tart flavour perfect for fresh eating or making traditional murabbas and preserves. The variegated foliage maintains its colour intensity in bright, indirect light and requires regular watering during fruit development. This variety appeals to gardeners seeking ornamental value alongside the nostalgic taste of homegrown guavas.
