What kind of tree is it?

A Central American species, the guava tree is often cultivated in tropical countries. It produces extremely juicy fruit and beautiful, large, perfumed flowers. Guava fruit is consumed both fresh and in the form of juices, nectars, and preserves. It thus provides great support to the rural economy of Kenya to ensure the dietary security of the local population.
