the black Guava is sold here at Chandigarh at one of the nurseries. once when i was in that nursery to buy some plants a female came there and started fighting with the owner. she had a complaint that the black guava plant which she bought though bore fruits with a red inside pulp tastes like water. to which the nursery owner said that you cant get everything from a plant....differently looking black fruits and they should also be tasty...thats not possible....
but i personally think that that can be possible if the plant is grown at its native place or more suitable conditions... Alok On Aug 10, 11:31 pm, "Aarti S.
