Hey, nice to see a community like this. We're over in Houston, Texas and bought an approximately 1 year old guava plant (about 3' in height). I read it should have about 10-12 feet spacing from other trees. What about spacing from other small plants? Like shrubbery or some ground cover? I'm trying to accommodate this guava tree in my landscape and I don't want to plant it isolated from everything. Would it be okay to plant it surrounded by some small shrubs, flowers, ground cover? Same goes for the pear and fig tree I got. Advice?
Howdy, Welcome to the Stew from Hank down in central Florida where quavas grow wild or did before the developers pushed them all up and planted condos and suburbs; if you give them plenty of nutrients and water and not too shady a location they will do fine. Introduce yourself in the 'WELCOME TO GARDEN STEW' forum. Hank
not much i paid like $12 for it, got it from a flea market. I cant post a pic right now, sorry. but its about 3 feet in height and 2 feet wide at the top.
