Pineapple Guavas are a shrub. Sometimes they are trained to look like trees. If the plants you bought were grown from seed then it could be a few more years before you see flowers and fruit. Also, the quality of fruit from plants started by seed is usually poor. On the other hand, you might have purchased plants propagated by air-layering. In that case they should have flowered by now. Generally they just require water and sunshine to flower. Feeding them will improve the size and quality of the fruit - although this depends greatly upon the cultivar.
