[2] The common guava Psidium guajava (lemon guava, apple guava) is a small tree in the myrtle family (), native to Mexico, Central America, the Caribbean and northern South America. [2]
These changes begin in an inner part of the fruit, the locule, which is the gel-like tissue surrounding the seeds. Ripening-related changes initiate in this region once seeds are viable enough for the process to continue, at which point ripening-related changes occur in the next successive tissue of the fruit called the pericarp.

Psidium cattleyanum (World Plants: Psidium cattleianum), [2] [3] commonly known as Cattley guava, strawberry guava or cherry guava, is a small tree (2–6 m (6 ft 7 in – 19 ft 8 in) tall) in the Myrtaceae (myrtle) family. The species is named in honour of English horticulturist William Cattley.

[2] It is easily pollinated by insects; when cultivated, it is pollinated mainly by the common honey bee, Apis mellifera .
True dormancy or inherent (or innate) dormancy is caused by conditions within the seed that prevent germination even if the conditions are favorable. [7] Imposed dormancy is caused by the external conditions that remain unsuitable for germination [8] Seed dormancy can be divided into two major categories based on what part of the seed produces dormancy: exogenous and endogenous.

Pollination of fruit trees is required to produce seeds with surrounding fruit. It is the process of moving pollen from the anther to the stigma , either in the same flower or in another flower. Some tree species, including many fruit trees, do not produce fruit from self-pollination , so pollinizer trees are planted in orchards.
Place the seeds on a baking sheet and top with the sweet or savory spices. Give them a good mix to make sure the seeds are evenly coated. Roast in the oven for 10-15 minutes.
The agricultural cycle is the annual cycle of activities related to the growth and harvest of a crop (plant). These activities include loosening the soil, seeding, special watering, moving plants when they grow bigger, and harvesting, among others.
