Joshua,
The feijoa (feijoa sellowiana), a small tree of the Myrtle family, is
related to the guava and often called pineapple guava. It is native to
southern Brazil, Paraguay, Uruguay, and parts of Argentina and is
cultivated in mild, dry climates for its fruit. The feijoa was introduced
into southern Europe in 1890 and into California about 1900. Hope this is
of some use to you.

describes the world and you are not in it, there is a moment of psychic
disequilibrium, as if you looked into a mirror and saw nothing."
