Strawberry guava (Psidium cattleianum) is native to southeastern Brazil. It commonly grows there in coastal plains and Atlantic forests up to about 4,000 feet (1200 m) in elevation and is occasionally cultivated as an ornamental fruit tree. In Brazil, strawberry guava typically ranges from 3 to 16 feet (1 to 5 m) in height, and its fruit is variable, yellow varieties being more common than red.
