Fantasic !
What conditions does it need to be kept in?

Thanks! Well, it's been planted in my front yard for more than 6 years now. It gets full sun...I think it would prefer a little more shade though...as it used to be more shaded from my neighbor's tall Oleanders, which were cut down last year.
It's always been a very heavy producer of coffee cherries.
The only draw back is that the leaves have brown-tipping (which you can see on the previous pic) because of our horrible hard water here. It actually looks better with winter rains.

It's true. lol! :>))
The flowers are very sweetly fragrant, also. Gardenia is in the same family (Rubiaceae) as coffee.
