☀️ Planting and Care

Unpack promptly: Remove the plant from its packaging soon after delivery and inspect the roots for damage or signs of dehydration.

Prepare the roots: If roots are slightly dry, briefly rehydrate them in clean, room-temperature water before planting. Avoid leaving them submerged for extended periods. If roots are already moist, do not soak them unnecessarily.

Choose a suitable container: Use a container with drainage holes and a well-draining potting mix. Select a pot that comfortably accommodates the roots without forcing them into a tight space.

Plant carefully: Position the roots naturally and cover them with the growing medium. Avoid burying the stem deeper than it was originally grown.

Water after planting: Water thoroughly to settle the soil around the roots, then allow excess water to drain. Keep the soil appropriately moist while the plant establishes, but avoid waterlogging. Do not delay the initial watering for several days if the newly planted roots need moisture.

Light: Gradually acclimate the plant to stronger sunlight over approximately a week if it has spent several days in a shipping box. Protect it from harsh midday sun while it adjusts.

Temperature: Strawberry guava is generally suited to warm subtropical conditions. Protect young plants from frost and verify the species' temperature tolerance before leaving it outdoors year-round.

📦 What to Expect After Shipping

Bare-root plants may experience temporary transplant stress. Some wilting, leaf drop, or slow initial growth can occur while the roots establish.

Unpack the plant promptly, inspect the roots, plant it in suitable growing medium, and provide appropriate moisture and light. Recovery time varies with root condition, shipping duration, temperature, and care.
