I have two Feijoas in my garden - one that I've had for about three or four years whch is full of beautiful blossom right now - the flowers are also edible by the way -  and the other is a baby I got in the spring so that the two would cross pollinate for fruit. The baby's too small to do anything this year, so I've been out with a fine brush to try and pollinate the big one. Fingers crossed!
