Here's what the Ruby Supreme fruit I saw looks like, but not as big as they say in the website.

https://www.logees.com/guava-ruby-supreme-psidium-guajava.html

Also, the fruit I saw did have most fragrance than any other soft flesh guava I have, but this fruit was on the ground and over ripe. I'll try to show a photo of it later. The brix I measured was 14.

Ok, found this photo, it looks more like the fruit I had.



Anyone else grow the Ruby Supreme?

Barak, I do have the Mexican Cream variety so if you are interested in a cutting (for trade?) let me know since I'm grafting my Sylvia guava to all my Home Depot Mexican Cream trees.

Malhar, so is your Pakistan Larkana tree large enough to start holding fruit yet? Did you taste it on your tree?

I got cutitngs of the Taiwanese Long, Indonesian Seedless, and two other varieties from this person. He mentioned the same about 2 of these large white flesh guava fruits. He said the fruit starts out hard (size is medium-large) but if you wait until the outside of the fruit starts to turn a little yellow, then it gets a little softer and is sweet (for a guava).

I found another guava fruit on the ground there, it was not the hard crunchy type, it was more like the Sylvia guava, the fruit gets pretty soft when ripe. I noticed this fruit which is about the same size as the Mexican Cream (2-3" long) because the inside flesh was pink/red. After I asked about it, he said it was called Ruby Supreme. He got it from a nursery.

The other guava cutting I just got is called Indonesian Seedless Guava (good when eaten soft. Sweet pineapple/guava flavor). Is anyone growing this one, or has tried the fruits?

The person who has this tree said it will get a little yellow on the outside when fully ripe on the tree, and a little soft, taste is sweeter than the other two varieties he grows (Giant Taiwanesse Long, and Taiwanese Seedless).

The White  Peruvian guava I have tasted really good in some year and bland the other year. Maybe it has something to do with the long rainy season and watering schedule. I don't live in the property now, so it is hard to arrange the watering schedule
 I grew up eating Indonesian seedless guava,  in my humble opinion it is good, but not really good that it is worth to import a tree. The good Peruvian guava is better than the Indonesian seedless, more creamy and bigger.

New to the group and happy to be here!  I have a large Loquat tree.  I am considering a project of air layering so I can provide more people with starts that would produce fruit sooner.  Does anyone have thoughts on this?  I have included pictures of my tree and the fruit.

Thank you!

That looks strange for a rambutan flower. There are usually clusters on the end of branchlets, not coming individually out of the side of a thicker branch like that appears.
You should see ovaries in the center of the flower.

There are 2 here and more buds just starting. I wasn’t sure what make and female flowers look like (not very good at jackfruit either).
