Pineapple Guava Seeds

I acquired a couple fruits of pineapple guava. The seeds are very tiny, slightly smaller than the head of a pin. Are these viable seeds?

I don't know but wouldn't hurt to plant them. I have 2 pineapple guavas and love them but no fruits yet.

I planted some seeds a couple weeks ago but nothing has come up. Maybe it isn't warm enough. Left to its own devices, the house in the high 60s at this time of year. In the evening we will run the furnace, which is set at 74F, but the place where the seeds are is probably not that warm.

Some seeds are starting to sprout. :-)

Weeds, You may want to check on this, but I 'think' guava are Male or Female plants and you may need one of each.
I just think I read this somewhere???
We should have an expert around here somewhere I hope =)
Isn't there a fruit tree forum?

Boy, I love Pineapple Guava. Dunno how you managed to save some seeds! Looking for info, you might check under its other common name Feijoa:

(According to one of those pages, some varieties are not self fertile.)
