Grow your own morning perk! The Coffee Plant (Coffea arabica) is an upright tropical evergreen plant with great blossoms and bright purple fruit. The glossy fine-textured, pointed foliage adds year-round interest to your garden, while the seeds inside the fruit can be roasted for a flavorful caffeinated drink!
Coffea arabica is the most well-known source for our favorite morning drink! But few know it’s also a beautiful ornamental multi-trunked tree or large shrub. Any bright location with high humidity will allow these tropical fruit trees to grow. Filling out in white blossoms in the late spring and extending to early summer.
Coffee Plants form purple grape-like fruit form soon afterward, and once the pulp is removed and the seed inside dried, roasted and ground, you are ready to brew your favorite morning pick-me-up! Whether it’s for your own orchard or for use as privacy, these evergreens provide lush greenery and screening.

These trees are gorgeous when in bloom, the delicate white blossoms covering the tops of each branch. The pollinators will be fluttering around these blooms. The glossy foliage remains dark green all year, giving year-round color and accents. The reddish to purplish fruit is glossy and grape-sized, looking lovely if you don’t pick them.
Coffee trees look great as a unique conversation piece by your back patio or accent your front door. Pot up in a large planter or container for a patio or porch shade tree and accent.
