Cattley guava, is a small tree bearing small red fruit. Native to Brazil and adjacent tropical South America, it is closely related to common guava, and like that species is a widespread, highly invasive species in tropical areas, especially Hawai'i. The fruit can be eaten by cutting them in half and scooping out the pulp and seeds or by biting off a piece of the rind and sucking out the insides. Strawberry guavas taste like a passionfruit mixed with strawberry. The seeds are small and white in colour and can be roasted as a substitute for coffee. Its leaves may be brewed for tea. The skin is also edible and tastes a bit like rose petals but is best removed for a sweeter flavor[wikipedia]. Enjoy some of these, if fruiting, on the hike!!
