Lujan and Campo Ramon looked the best out of my Plinias during winter.  Barely even dropped a couple leaves at most.

See! That's what I have read about the Lujan. I was hoping I could put it in the ground with some protection.

Thank you all for your insights on this topic. @Jaboticaba45, I have a DongKui Yangmei, do you suppose this one could make it out there?

Mine died when it went below 15f.
Well it didn't die right away as I was saying, but that started its decline.
If you can keep temps above 20, you should be chilling!

Thanks for the info, Jaboticaba45. We have gone subzero many times before, just not in the past year or two. Not sure if the couple of sticks in ground with frost cloth and Christmas lights trick will be enough to raise temps above 20 during those hard freezes, but I'll look into it before risking my only Yangmei.

Most that mentioned how their jobos got fried were sabaras. I'm curious about the Lujan specifically. This one according to huertasurbanas fruits in temperate climate:

Closing the sale in 2 hours! If you want the seedlings, you must pay latest noon EST. I won't be able to process shipments after that.

fanshiliu, thank you for posting these photos of the Carmine guava. If you can translate in English any of your comments that would be nice.

I have not seen these Carmine guava photos so your pictures are appreciated, thanks.

I think there were a few other TFF members that mention this to me as well. It sure does look very similar to the guava fruit you posted, I'm excited to see this.

The person who has this large tree (height about 17 feet) told me his relative brought the tree from Taiwan. He has 2 trees, his tree and one more at another house.

So far, for me this guava is my favorite of all of the ones I have eaten. Still did not taste the frutis from JF (Frank) pnk/red flesh guava called Delores and Jalisco. My grafted branches of this one is still growing slow and may not get a fruit on it for another year. If anyone else (besides Brad) is growing Frank's guava, please post some photos of it here so I can see what it looks like. I surprised that not many if anyone else has Frank's guava fruiting yet.
