Hechun White Jade Guava (河唇白玉番石榴)

Description

This variety is also known as the “Four Seasons Peach Guava”. Primarily because it is cultivated in Hechun Town, Lianjiang City—hence the alternate name is Lianjiangfan. Its flesh is pure white, like jade, which has earned it nicknames such as “Hechun White Flesh” and “Hechun White Jade.” It flowers and bears fruit throughout the year, with individual fruits weighing around 150 to 300 grams. The fruits are round, with thick, tender, and sweet white flesh.

During spring and summer, the skin takes on a pale yellowish-white hue, and the flavor is relatively mild. Autumn and winter are its peak seasons, when the flesh becomes especially delicate and soft. Some fruits even develop a reddish tint on the skin, and the taste becomes richer—fragrant, sticky, and sweet—making it particularly enticing.
