Product Description - Coffee Plant
At the bases of their 4 to 6 inch long, glossy green leaves, Arabian Coffee plants bear clusters of sweetly scented, 3/4-inch white flowers intermittently throughout the year; these mature into pulpy, glistening red, 1/2-inch berries. Within each berry are two seeds, the beans from which coffee is made. Coffee plants, which do not begin to blossom or bear fruit until they are three or four years old, grow upright to a height of 4 feet or more unless the tips of stems are pinched.Plant Care
The Arabian Coffee plant does best in curtain-filtered sunlight, night temperatures of 60 to 65 and day temperatures of 70 degrees or higher. Keep the soil evenly moist; fertilize every two weeks from March to October, and monthly the rest of the year. Try to avoid touching the young leaves, which are thin and tender. Propagate from seeds at any time or from cuttings of upright-growing tips. Do not attempt to propagate from cuttings of side branches, since they generally develop into poorly shaped plants.0 Comment
