Container Gardening

This tasty and prolific fruit is perfect for container growing!



Chilean guava also know as new zealand cranberry is a great plant to grow in containers. The fruits are delicious and red in colour tasting like strawberries and guava. You can also use the leaves to make an antioxidant rich tea :).

These beautiful little fruits are Chile and guava and they grow in this nice Evergreen little shrub here and what’s cool as well as getting these beautiful little fruits that tastes like strawberries and guavas and sweet candy with a bit of tanginess in them you also

Get the leaves so you can make a Chile and guava leaf tea which was made traditionally by indigenous people in South America to treat quite a few different ailments and it’s been shown in studies that they’re very high in antioxidants as well so it’s a great plant all around that has multiple uses

And can easily be grown from cuttings as well

    Shame about their pest potential in NZ (and the threat of Myrtle rust!). It’s always a treat getting your content and learning about some of the more exotic plants you can actually find and grow here, since it’s inevitably followed by my father (a Botanist) going into detail about how bad of a pest they are when the topic comes up in conversation. The compromise is he gets some new specimens and a trial run of their pest potential while I go ahead and grow them anyway! Enjoy your Christmas and New year’s Kalem!

    Here in Chile it is called "murta" or "murtilla" and it is not so easy to grow since the plant prefers cold winters and cool summers
