    I bought this plant this weekend and was told it was a Pineapple Guava plant by the lady at the garden center, however I've looked them up and the pictures I've seem don't seem to match. Any ideas?

    I agree - the leaves do not look like those of Pineapple Guava. Perhaps the salesperson had another fruit-bearing tree in mind. I thought of Punica granatum, Pomegranate, but can't say definitively that it is.

    In poor condition whatever it is. Think about taking it back.
