A must-have Feijoa in many places in New Zealand, not only is it frost hardy, but it is self fertile as well. However it will produce better if planted with other feijoas. Smooth skinned fruit with a mild flavour. Fairly vigorous and eventually forms a large evergreen shrub.

Though Feijoas are tough and tolerant it is important that they do not suffer drought when the fruit is developing. You will know your Feijoas are ready for eating when they start dropping to the ground.
