Need some expert advice please

Fiona from Henderson

I have a shrub, well it's that size for now in my back garden.
I was given the clipping and I was lead to believe it was a guava plant.
When it started to fruit, it didn't look like any guava that I've seen, but then I decided to use Google to investigate more.
I discovered that this maybe a strawberry guava, in fact to use the term that Google gave me - Rare Psidium cattleyanum Red Strawberry Guava.
I just need to know if anyone has one and they can confirm that it is indeed the red strawberry guava or something else.
I have included 2 photos.
I look forward to finding out if I indeed have a rare guava plant to to find out if there are any special secrets on how to look after it etc ....
