Care
Baby
Here I am! Your very own baby coffee tree. I hope you will take good care of
me. Put me somewhere indoors with lots of light and give me a little water
every other day.
After 2 weeks
After 2 weeks of pampering, it is time for a larger pot! Preferably a pot of 2
litres or more with holes for drainage underneath so I don’t drown.
Inside
At home in Ethiopia, it is 20 – 25°C all year round. So I am happier indoors
all year. I tolerate shade well, but I grow faster beside a sunny window.
Teenager
What you nurture will grow. I do my very best. Once I am twice the height
of my pot, it is time for a larger home.
Fertilizer & tree size
I get a little peckish when I develop new leaves and will be very grateful for a little extra plant food! You can decide how big I grow. In pot and with good care I grow about 30 centimeter per year.
