Title: Re: [NAFEX] Chilean Guava

We really need more people from the California Rare Fruit Growers on this list.  They work with Chilean Guava (among a LOT of other tropical and subtropical fruits) all the time.   You can at least go have a look at their site, http://www.crfg.org for a list of people to ask.  And I have to admit that they produce a much flashier magazine than POMONA.  The latest issue contains the result of their yearly photo shoot and it's worthy of a good calendar, at least.
