Guava
Part of the myrtle family, the guava plant is native to Mexico, Central
America and northern South America. They grow particularly well in the
subtropical areas of South Africa, especially in Mpumalanga and the South
Western Cape’s Mediterranean climate. Well known for their sweet and musky
odour, delicious guavas are also famously high in Vitamin C. The timing of
guava season (April to July) couldn’t be better considering the positive
impact Vitamin C has on the severity and duration of colds and flu. Be sure
to add guavas to your diet this winter!

to July.
