Many thanks, Sherry. Here's brief summary (from the wiki doc) about this surprising (to me) plant: Acca sellowiana (Feijoa, Pineapple Guava) -- The crisp, spicy-sweet tasting petals of its flowers are edible; its fruits mature in autumn and fall to ground when ripe; its fruits smell like potent fine perfume aroma; its fruits are with sweet aromatic flavor and taste like pineapple, apple, and mint; pulp in fruit can be used in natural cosmetic products as of exfoliant. -- these are the info I like to know and hope to experience (test) on.
If a plant looks good, smells good, don't eat it, grow it!
