Tropical tree seen during Antigua vacation (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

guava

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'tropical tree' is the definition.
'guava' can be an answer for 'tree' (guava is a kind of tree). I am not certain of the 'tropical' bit.

'during antigua vacation' is the wordplay.
'during' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'GUAVA' is hidden within 'antigua vacation'.

'seen' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for guava that I've seen before include "Large cask; tube" , "Pink-fleshed tropical fruit" , "Pale orange tropical fruit" , "Pear-shaped tropical fruit" , "Tropical fruit with yellow skin and pink pulp" .)
