Guava
Red Malaysian Guava
✓ VerifiedMalaysia
Red Malaysian guava originated in Malaysia and is grown as much as an ornamental as for its fruit — its reddish new foliage and skin coloring made it popular in landscape planting across Southeast Asia and, later, Florida and Hawaii, where it is often planted specifically for visual interest alongside its edible fruit.
