Perfume Guava (forum)

Violet_Cactus starts with ...
I am looking for seeds or plants of Perfume Guava (Campomanesia lineatifolia). Paul Recher's Fruit Spirit Botanical Gardens used to sell them but that seems to have closed and I cannot find the plants anywhere.

Am happy to buy or swap!

B & T World seeds is offereing them at a discount rate - 15 Euros for 90 seeds. But you'd have to check the AQIS website to see if you can import the seeds, seems it depends on which country of origin they come from. Good luck.

I would LOVE to buy seeds from you, Recher-probably-Paul.

And not only Perfume Guava seeds.

How can you be contacted?


Speedy, thanks for making enquiries! :)
FNQ sounds like a veritable treasure trove of unusual edibles.

myrtacea are now next to impossible (valid importpermit, grown in quarantine facilities = costly) due to guava rust concerns even though if rust present a simple sodium hypochlorite dip ends any threat

They seem to come up fine here. A friend always has a few plants handy. They don't get stung by fruit flies (yet), but the fruit spotting bug takes out most of the crop.
