Coffee shrub (Coffea arabica) in pot 12

The invigorating black drink, coffee, has been consumed and cultivated in its original homeland, Ethiopia, for about a thousand years, but the custom of drinking coffee only arrived in Europe in the 17th century. Although the coffee genus consists of many species, only two of them are really suitable as raw materials for the well-known luxury food, one of them is the Coffea arabica, or the Arabian coffee plant.

Over time, however, this valuable crop plant began to be cultivated in other parts of the world as well, so today Brazil is one of the largest coffee-producing countries, accounting for about 40% of the world's production.

The purchased plant must always be replanted in order to survive in the apartment in the long term. We recommend transplanting them into a larger pot or box so that they feel comfortable in the heated apartment and do not wither. It is important not to forget to spray (with water)!

Interesting fact

Interestingly, while Brazil is more of a mass producer, the coffee beans grown by Jamaica, Ethiopia, Costa Rica and Colombia are mostly used for the special quality espresso coffee. This evergreen, frost-sensitive shrub grows wild on the higher plateaus of the African country, where it eventually grows into a 6-8 m tall tree.

Use

It requires a bright place with filtered light, well-drained, nutrient-rich, slightly moist but not wet soil. If possible, never let the soil dry out completely between waterings, but keep in mind that it requires less water during the winter months.

In summer, it can also be placed on a shaded, protected balcony away from the scorching sun. From autumn to spring, keep it in a room with a relatively constant temperature and not too warm air, preferably in front of a bright, well-lit window. However, do not expose it to temperatures below 13°C during the winter, as it may shed its leaves below this temperature. Protect it from drafts and sudden changes in temperature.

Storage

Store at 15-20 °C, not in a dry place.
