📌 Product Description

Coffea arabica, commonly known as the Arabica Coffee Plant, is an attractive evergreen shrub or small tree valued for its glossy, dark green leaves, fragrant white flowers, and red coffee cherries. Beyond its ornamental appeal, it produces the beans used to make premium Arabica coffee.

The plant features elegant, arching branches and highly aromatic, jasmine-like white flowers that bloom in spring to early summer, followed by green berries that ripen to bright red. Perfect for indoor containers, patios, and subtropical gardens, it combines beauty with the novelty of growing your own coffee.
