Several varieties will grown in Texas, since many will just magically become deciduous when the temperatures drop below 45. A hard freeze can be fatal though.
As for plants called "guava", there are
Psidium guajava -- which produce larger fruits
Psidium cattleianum -- which produce tart fruits about 1 inch in diameter
Acca sellowiana -- the pineapple guava
... to name a few
