The Arlo Rare Dwarf Psidium guajava "Purple Guava" is a specific cultivar of guava (Psidium guajava) known for its dwarf size and purple-colored fruits. Psidium guajava is a tropical fruit tree native to Central America but is now cultivated in many tropical and subtropical regions worldwide.

The Arlo Rare Dwarf Purple Guava is characterized by its compact growth habit, which makes it suitable for smaller gardens, containers, or even indoor cultivation. It typically reaches a height of around 2 to 3 meters (6 to 10 feet), making it more manageable compared to the larger guava tree varieties.

As the name suggests, the fruits of the Arlo Rare Dwarf Purple Guava are purple in color when mature. The flesh inside can range from pink to deep purple, depending on the ripeness. The flavor of the fruit is often described as sweet and aromatic, with a hint of tartness. Guava fruits are rich in vitamins A and C, dietary fiber, and antioxidants.

When growing the Arlo Rare Dwarf Purple Guava or any guava variety, it is essential to provide it with suitable growing conditions. Guava trees thrive in full sun exposure and well-drained soil. They are relatively tolerant of different soil types but prefer slightly acidic to neutral pH levels. Regular watering is necessary, especially during dry periods, to promote healthy growth and fruit production.

Guava trees are known for their ability to adapt to various climates, but they typically thrive in tropical and subtropical regions with warm temperatures. They can be sensitive to frost, so protection may be required in colder climates or during winter.

Pruning the guava tree is beneficial to maintain its compact shape and encourage better fruit production. It is recommended to remove any dead or diseased branches and thin out the canopy to allow proper air circulation.

The Arlo Rare Dwarf Purple Guava, with its small size and attractive purple fruits, can be a delightful addition to a garden or a unique container plant. Enjoying the sweet and aromatic guava fruits can be a rewarding experience for guava enthusiasts or those looking to try something new in their tropical fruit collection.
