'''Guabiraba''' ('''''Campomanesia lineatifolia'''''; also chamba) is an accepted evergreen tree in the myrtle family [[Myrtaceae]].<sup id="cite_ref-1">[[#cite_note-1|[1]]]</sup><sup id="cite_ref-2">[[#cite_note-2|[2]]]</sup> It is associated with warm, humid tropical rainforest habitats that do not become inundated, and its fruit is used fresh and in prepared products.<sup id="cite_ref-3">[[#cite_note-3|[3]]]</sup>

== Description ==
Guabiraba grows about 5–10 m tall. Its documented range includes western South America and central and northern Brazil. The fruit is aromatic and yellow, with a diameter of about 6 cm.<sup>[[#cite_note-3|[3]]]</sup>

== Cultivation ==
A habitat-based starting point is a warm, humid tropical site resembling the species' primary-rainforest setting. Avoid treating that rainforest association as evidence that the tree tolerates inundation: the recorded habitat is specifically non-inundated.<sup>[[#cite_note-3|[3]]]</sup>

=== Soil and water ===
Choose a soil that can hold dependable moisture while allowing excess water to drain. The species is associated with primary rainforest areas that do not become inundated, so a wet site should not be assumed to be suitable merely because the climate is humid.<sup>[[#cite_note-3|[3]]]</sup>

=== Sun and humidity ===
Warm, humid tropical conditions are the clearest environmental baseline. The native primary-rainforest setting supports maintaining atmospheric humidity, but it does not establish a fixed shade or full-sun prescription for cultivated trees.<sup>[[#cite_note-3|[3]]]</sup>

=== Seasonal changes ===
Manage the planting within a warm, humid tropical cycle and keep the root zone out of prolonged standing water. Fruit timing can vary with region; a single flowering or harvest calendar is not given.<sup>[[#cite_note-3|[3]]]</sup>

== Propagation ==
Seed is the documented propagation route for guabiraba. No germination schedule, grafting method, vegetative protocol, or bearing-age value is supplied; no precise timings or success rates are assigned.<sup>[[#cite_note-3|[3]]]</sup>

== Flowering, fruiting, and harvest ==
The fruit is described as yellow, aromatic, and about 6 cm in diameter. Regional fruit timing may differ, and no universal harvest season is stated. The fruit and use description does not establish a fixed picking calendar.<sup>[[#cite_note-3|[3]]]</sup>

== Fruit and uses ==
The fruit is eaten raw and is used in juices, ice creams, jellies, and marmalade.<sup>[[#cite_note-3|[3]]]</sup>
