Psidium Cattleyanum. (Var. Lucidum.)

This low-growing shrub is occasionally cultivated in these Islands. It has opposite obovate leaves, and fragrant white flowers. The round fruit, which has a sweet, yellow pulp, is larger than the strawberry guava, and has a more delicate flavor.

G. P. W. Collection. Plate LXIII
