GUAYAMA—GUAYAS RIVER 991
acteristic and not always appreciated. The Brazilian guava (P.
guineense) has smaller but similar fruit.
Guavas are pre-eminently suited for the preparation of jellies,
jams and preserves, highly popular in many tropical countries and
exported from a few, notably Cuba. Fresh guavas are rich in
vitamin C; they are eaten out of hand or may be sliced and served
with sugar and cream as a dessert.
The common guava resists little frost, hence is not cultivated in
many parts of California but is successfully grown throughout
southern Florida. In several tropical regions it grows so abund-
antly in a half-wild state as to become a pest.
Propagation of the plant is usually by seeds, but the fine varie-
ties that have been developed in Florida, California and a few
other parts of the world must be perpetuated by some vegetative
means. Because of its hard, dry wood and thin bark, propagation
by cuttings and by conventional methods of grafting are not prac-
tical, but veneer grafting, using as rootstocks young plants in
vigorous growth, and covering the grafts with strips of polyethy-
lene plastic, gives excellent results. A method known as modified
Forkert budding has been recommended in Hawaii.
The cattley or strawberry guava is considerably more frost re-
sistant and is popular in many subtropical regions. It is a large
shrub, attractive for its thick, glossy-green oval leaves and its
white flowers. The fruits are round, occasionally as much as two
inches in diameter, and contain numerous hard seeds like those of
the common guava. The flavour of the soft whitish flesh has been
likened to that of the strawberry, hence one of the common names.
This species is frequently planted in gardens throughout southern
California and several other subtropical regions; nowhere has it
attained commercial importance.
Other guavas used to a limited extent in parts of tropical America include the cas of Costa Rica (P. friedrichsthalianum) and the guisaro (P. molle), both of which yield highly acid, not very pungent, fruits. The so-called pineapple guava is the feijoa (q.v.), a related fruit tree.

GUAYAMA, a town and municipality on the southeastern
Caribbean coast of Puerto Rico. Town pop. (1960) 19,183; mu-
nicipality pop. (1960) 33,678. The town is located on a broad
and fertile plain about 5 mi. from the coast. Extensive irrigation
facilities have made the area around Guayama rich in sugar pro-
duction. Five large centrales or sugar factories grind the cane
which directly or indirectly supplies the livelihood for about 85%
of the population in the area. The sugar is shipped from two small
ports, Arroyo and Puerto Jobos. Guayama is connected by high-
ways to the west with Salinas and Ponce, to the east with Humacao,
and with Cayey to the north by the scenic Spanish-built military
highway.
The central plaza of Guayama, dominated by San Antonio church
and adorned by carefully pruned trees, is one of the most beauti-
ful on the island. Textiles, optical products and soft drinks are
manufactured. In the mountains to the north of Guayama are im-
portant hydroelectric plants which service the southeastern sec-
tion of Puerto Rico. The town was founded in 1736 as San An-
tonio de Padua de Guayama.

GUAYAQUIL, chief port and largest city of Ecuador, capital
of the province of Guayas (q.v.), located on the west bank of the
Guayas river (q.v.) about 45 mi. upstream from the Gulf of Guaya-
quil. Pop. (1957 est.) 410,000; (1950) 258,966. The main part
of the city is on high ground at the foot of a hill which has two
humps called Cerro Santa Ana and Cerro Santa Carmen, about
30 ft. above sea level, and stands above the highest floods of the
river although the lower town is at times inundated.
The climate of Guayaquil is equatorial but temperatures are
never extreme; the average of the warmest month (April) is
27°C. (80°F.), and for the coldest month (July), 24°C. (75°F.).
Rainfall is heavy from January to May, but there is little rain dur-
ing the rest of the year. Violent storms and heavy winds are
unknown, but the humidity is high, especially in the rainy season.
The average annual rainfall is 38.8 in.
A settlement was established near modern Guayaquil in 1535 by
Sebastián de Belalcázar. This site, at the mouth of the Babahoyo
river, was subject to flooding and disease. The location was moved,
and finally in 1538 Francisco de Orellana established the town in
its present location, naming it Santiago de Guayaquil to honour
both the saint on whose day it was founded and the Indian chief
Quaya and his wife Quila. The city has survived attacks by bucc-
aneers, fires, earthquakes and pestilence. For many years Guaya-
