Description

Coffee plants (Coffea arabica) are compact shrubs with glossy, dark green, thin leaves, which prefer a shady, permanently warm spot in bright living rooms or conservatories and are easy-care permanent guests in the pot. As they grow older, they produce more and more of their 3-4 cm large, white, fragrant flowers, followed by small, bright red fruits, each containing two of the much-loved coffee beans. Dried and roasted, they are the basic ingredient for coffee enjoyment all over the world. Care tip: Coffee shrubs appreciate always slightly moist soil and a warm spot (above 15 °C), but no direct sun: this would burn the leaves.
