Guava
\Gua"va\, n. [Sp. guayaba the guava fruit, guayabo the
guava tree; prob. fr. the native West Indian name.]
A tropical tree, or its fruit, of the genus
Psidium. Two
varieties are well known, the
P. pyriferum, or
white guava
, and
P. pomiferum, or
red guava. The fruit or
berry is shaped like a pomegranate, but is much smaller. It
is somewhat astringent, but makes a delicious jelly.
