The Bahama Wild Coffee plant is considered a shrub and is
mainly used as an accent in landscapes. Its small shiny dark green leaves
and red fruit add great texture and color. It has some shade tolerance, but
unlike its relative, Wild Coffee, it prefers sunnier locations. Mildly
salt tolerant, it can be mainly found on hammocks, but can thrive in coastal
gardens if given enough barrier from salt spray by other foliage. The flowers
of the coffee plant have a very similar fragrance to the gardenia bush.
If you love the smell of gardenias, use Bahama Coffee in place of it to keep
your garden native! The Bahama Coffee shrub stands at only a few feet high,
with shiny dark green elliptical leaves. Its fruit stands out with its
shiny red appearance and bares small white flowers when in bloom. This
form of wild coffee is smaller than its relatives, making it a nice little
addition to your landscape. Birds such as the blue jay and cardinal enjoy the
Bahama Coffee’s fruit. Its foliage creates great cover for ground
dwelling wildlife. With sustained flowering and fruiting throughout the
year, this shrub provides plenty of food. This native south Florida plant
is perfect for attracting indigenous wildlife to your garden.
