How to Propagate Feijoa sellowiana
The tiny feijoa seed, a speck of potential, promises a future harvest of fragrant, jewel-toned fruit. Yet, its germination, a capricious dance with nature, is a gamble—a low percentage chance of yielding a thriving plant. Months melt into years as the seedling inches towards maturity, a slow, green ascent to a symphony of pineapple, guava, and strawberry notes. But propagating from a cutting is a different story, a more certain path. To coax roots from a severed stem, to nurse delicate life from a piece of the mother plant, this is a craftsman’s task; a quiet, hopeful communion with the plant’s resilience. The reward? The heady aroma of ripening fruit, a testament to patience and the magic of nurturing life from a sliver of possibility.
