How to Care for Your Arabica Coffee Plant

Place your coffee plant in a location with bright, filtered light and protection from intense direct sun. Use a rich, well-draining potting mix and water regularly to keep the soil evenly moist—never allowing it to fully dry out. This tropical prefers high humidity, so mist frequently or use a humidity tray for best results.

Avoid cold drafts and low temperatures. During the growing season, fertilize every 4–6 weeks with a diluted balanced fertilizer. While fruiting indoors is rare, the foliage alone makes this a prized and rewarding plant to grow.
