Chilean Guava Update

When my 6 plants arrived from Suttons Seeds they looked extremely healthy but their progress has been slow since. I have noticed some round growths which have been getting larger and larger.

At first I thought these may have been the berries themselves but after re-checking images on the internet, I'm fairly sure that these are actually the flowers emerging.

The flowers when they are fully revealed are very attractive and have an almost fuscia-like look to them. The berries themselves look a little like a blueberry in shape but a deep red in colour and apparently have a taste of wild strawberry.
