10 Coffea arabica Seeds
Tropical EXOTIC Coffee Bean Plant Tree Shrub Cafe
RARE!
Coffea arabica, also known as the Arabian coffee, “coffee shrub of Arabia”, “mountain coffee” or “arabica coffee”, is a species of Coffea. It is believed to be the first species of coffee to be cultivated, and is the dominant cultivar, representing about 60% of global production of coffee consumed on a daily basis today. The coffee plant is an attractive little specimen with glossy green leaves and a compact growth habit. It makes a surprisingly great potted indoor plant.
Winter hardy to USDA Zones 9-11. Best grown in organically rich, well-drained soils in filtered sun or light shade. Keep soils consistently moist but not soggy. Plants prefer climates with daytime temperatures of 70-80 degrees F. and nighttime temperatures of 60-65 degrees F. Leaf drop may occur when temperatures dip below 55 degrees F. Plants may be grown indoors in containers with a fast-draining potting soil. Indoor plants like bright sunny windows, but when taken outdoors appreciate light shade. Plants first flower when they reach 3-4 years old. Fertilize during the growing season.
