Chilean Guava, Myrtus ugni molinae 'Kapow' (Ugni molinae)

Coincidently reduced price on this plant for which I was searching. An evergreen shrub with white flowers followed by strawberry flavoured red fruit.

Put this one in the ground yesterday. Cant wait to see if I get a little fruit this year, just one or two to wet my tastebuds.

Homebird, it flowers May to June , fruit follows in September apparently. Said to be a favourite of Queen Victoria. Might need protection in a northern garden.
