Feijoa

["John McLennan" <>]

 

       Lawrie Conole writes about  Satin Bowerbirds  and Grey Currawongs eating the petals of the Feijoa or pineapple  guava.

 

       I too  have  a    3m  Feijoa in my garden which usually  flowers in early November.

 

       The flowers attract Regent Bowerbirds and to a lesser  extent Rainbow Lorikeets.

 

        When the fruit ripens it has a tangy vanilla flavour and attracts Green Catbirds and King Parrots.
