1. Harvesting guava leaves 🌿
   Choose healthy, mature leaves from a guava tree. Make sure they are not damaged or diseased.
2. Preparing the substrate 🪴
   Prepare a well-drained mixture of soil and sand. It is important that the substrate allows for good drainage to prevent the roots from rotting.
3. Cutting and preparing the leaves ✂️
   Cut the leaves into pieces about 5-10 cm in length. Make a clean cut at the base of each leaf.
4. Rooting the leaves 🌱
   Place the leaf pieces in a container with water or directly in the moist substrate. If you use water, change it every few days. If you opt for the substrate, always keep it slightly moist.
5. Location and initial care 🌞
   Place the container in a warm place with indirect light. Avoid direct exposure to the sun during this initial stage.
6. Wait for rooting ⏳
   The rooting process can take several weeks. Be patient and take care that the leaves do not dry out or rot.
7. Transplanting the shoots 🌳
   Once the roots have grown enough, transplant the shoots into larger pots or directly into the ground in a suitable location.
8. Ongoing care 💧
   Water regularly and protect the young shoots from pests. With time and care, the shoots will develop into guava trees.

This process requires patience and constant attention, but with proper care, you can successfully grow your own guava trees at home.
