About this gift

Coffea arabica, the coffee plant, makes a fun, compact indoor plant with glossy, dark green, wavy-edged leaves held on upright stems. The foliage is dense and lustrous, and in the right conditions it produces clusters of small, intensely fragrant white flowers followed by green berries that ripen to red. This is the same species behind the world's arabica coffee, and while you should not expect a meaningful harvest indoors, the fragrance alone is worth it. It is a neat, well-behaved grower that fits into a bright room without taking over.

How and where to grow your coffee plant

Position: bright, indirect light; shield from harsh midday sun, which scorches the leaves.

Water: keep the compost lightly moist through spring and summer, easing off in winter; never let it sit in water.
