Arabica Coffee

The Arabica Coffee plant (Coffea arabica) is an incredibly rewarding addition to your indoor garden, especially if you love the idea of growing the very plant that produces your morning brew. You will appreciate its glossy, dark green leaves and the delicate, star-shaped white flowers that fill your room with a sweet, jasmine-like fragrance before giving way to bright red coffee cherries. Indoors, this lush beauty typically grows into a manageable, bushy shrub reaching about four to five feet tall, making it a spectacular floor plant for a bright corner or a sunny office. Cultivating your own coffee plant brings a vibrant piece of the tropical highlands right into your living room, giving you a beautiful, living conversation piece that deepens your appreciation for a great cup of coffee.

To keep those glossy leaves vibrant and encourage eventual blooming, place your Arabica Coffee plant in bright, indirect sunlight. A spot just a few feet back from an east- or south-facing window is ideal, as harsh, direct sun will quickly scorch the foliage. Keep the soil consistently moist but never soggy; water thoroughly when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch, and ensure your pot has excellent drainage so the roots can always breathe. As a vital piece of advice for our animal-loving gardeners, the leaves and beans of the coffee plant contain caffeine and are highly toxic to cats and dogs if ingested. You must display this stunning shrub safely out of reach of your curious furry friends so you can enjoy its tropical energy with total peace of mind.
