Description

Coolidge Pineapple Guava (Acca sellowiana 'Coolidge') is a versatile evergreen fruiting shrub prized for its reliable self-fertility, ornamental foliage, and aromatic fall harvests. Its oval, leathery leaves are deep green above and softly silver-white beneath, providing attractive year-round color. In late spring to early summer, distinctive flowers display bright red stamens surrounded by fleshy, sweet, edible petals. Oval green fruits develop afterward, ripening in fall with fragrant, juicy flesh reminiscent of pineapple, strawberry, and guava. Coolidge is particularly appealing to home gardeners because a single plant can produce fruit, although compatible cross-pollination may improve yields. This adaptable shrub can be trained as a small tree or maintained as an evergreen hedge.

Faqs

Q: Does Coolidge Pineapple Guava need another plant for pollination?

A: No. Coolidge is a self-fertile cultivar capable of producing fruit on its own. A compatible second plant may improve fruit set.

Q: When is Coolidge Pineapple Guava ready to harvest?

A: Fruit generally ripens in fall. A good indication of ripeness is when the fruit begins to drop naturally and develops a pleasant aroma.

Q: Can Coolidge Pineapple Guava be grown as a hedge?

A: Yes. It can be maintained as an evergreen hedge or trained into a small ornamental tree. Avoid excessive pruning if fruit production is a priority.
