Before the harvest forms, the plant presents star-shaped flowers that offer a true spectacle: They first shine in a strong violet, which gradually fades to a creamy yellow over time. This is followed by many quail-egg-sized, bright orange fruits. In taste, they strongly resemble the well-known tree tomato (tamarillo) but are significantly sweeter, making them a true treat. The bushy growth fits perfectly into any plant collection and reaches impressive heights of up to two meters, but can be wonderfully kept in shape through pruning. Since this is just me and I don't have a typical nursery, each young plant is individually grown by me and lovingly packed for safe shipping to you.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cb\u003eChoosing a location and proper care\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eAs a tropical plant, the Guava Tamarillo loves plenty of light, but prefers a location with bright, indirect light. You should avoid direct midday sun if possible, as it can quickly burn the delicate leaves. The soil should be well-draining and kept consistently moist. Always allow the top 2 to 3 centimeters of soil to dry out slightly between waterings to prevent harmful waterlogging. During the growing season, the plant appreciates a balanced, diluted liquid fertilizer every four to six weeks to ensure it has enough strength for abundant flowering and fruiting.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cb\u003eOverwintering and cold tolerance\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eSince this fascinating rarity originates from warm South America, it is absolutely not frost-hardy. If you place it outdoors in a sheltered spot during the summer, it must be brought indoors to its winter quarters in good time before the first frosts. For successful overwintering, it needs a cool and bright place, ideally at 5 to 10 degrees Celsius (for example, a bright stairwell, a cool garage with a window, or a cool conservatory). During this dormant phase, the plant takes a break. You should then significantly reduce watering and allow the substrate to dry out well between waterings to prevent root rot. Fertilizer is not necessary during the cool winter break.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Pflanzenwelten Andre Heinek ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56226461483393,"sku":null,"price":9.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0931\/6332\/3777\/files\/20260905-152157.jpg?v=1788615384","url":"https:\/\/pflanzenwelten-heinek.de\/en\/products\/guaven-tamarillo-solanum-diploconos-jungpflanze","provider":"Pflanzenwelten Andre Heinek ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
