Meet Coffea Arabica, the Arabian Coffee plant! While it’s unlikely to produce a crop of coffee beans in your home, you can enjoy this plant for its dark, deeply corrugated leaves and dense, bushy habit. Easy to grow Coffea Arabica makes a handsome house plant and a great talking point. In spring, it may produce sweetly scented white flowers. Coffea enjoys a warm and humid atmosphere in a bright position but away from direct sun. Height: 120cm (48”). Spread: 100cm (39”). Sow at any time of year at 21-24C (70-75F), though best in spring to make most of the light levels. Soak seed for 48 hours prior to sowing. Set seed on the surface of compost and gently firm down. Seal in a polythene bag if no propagator is available. Do not exclude light as this aids germination, which can be erratic but usually takes 42-56 days. Aim to keep damp but not overly wet. When large enough to handle, transplant several seedlings per 10cm (4”) pot, filled with multipurpose compost. Positio
