Water the Guinea Guava regularly, keeping the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Allow the top inch of soil to dry out slightly between waterings.

Reduce watering during cooler months or when the plant is dormant. Ensure good drainage to prevent root rot.

Prune Guinea Guava to maintain shape, encourage fruit production, and remove dead or diseased branches. Light pruning can be done year-round. For fruiting, prune to encourage bushiness and air circulation.

Remove suckers that emerge from the base of the plant.

Guinea Guava can be propagated from seeds, which require scarification or stratification for better germination. Cuttings are another method, best taken from semi-hardwood in summer.

Rooting hormone can improve success rates. Grafting is also an option for faster fruiting.

Repot young Guinea Guava plants every 1-2 years, or when they become root-bound. Use a well-draining potting mix. Choose a pot slightly larger than the current one.

Repot in spring before the active growing season begins. Mature plants may only need repotting every few years.
