Rare!
Make a photo for us!
It would be interesting what kind of fruit it bears. Commercial strawberries are highly hybridized so the offspring often splits and has traits which are significantly different from the parent plants.

Guavas are cool, I like their bark! The fruit are also good. We bought some pink ones on our recent holiday. They had lots of seeds but you could eat them. Keep in mind that some guava species are extremely invasive so you better not plant them out in nature. Well you live in a huge city anyway.
Harvested Medlars this weekend, they are the last fruit to ripen. They need cold to turn into a brown pulp that tastes like Apfelstrudel. The yellow fruit in the pic are not ripe and inedible. The brown are ready to be consumed or processed. I cook the ripe fruit and squeeze them through a food mill with a sieve to remove the seeds and skin and get a brown mass. It can be frozen and will be used as cake and Christmas Cookie filling.
