Coffea arabica - Coffee Tree

IS THAT THE ACTUAL COFFEE PLANT THEY GET THE BEANS FROM.

Wow! This is really interesting to see, Delonix. I’ll have to look this up now, to find out a bit more.

Lindak:

Yes, it's the actual tree where coffee beans (seeds) are grown from. The cherries are edible, also. I used to have a large coffee tree. It died during the long, horrible 7 year drought.

THANKS FOR THE INFO DELONIX.....NEVER SEEN ONE CLOSE UP BEFORE,

Coffee tree grow well in San Diego's subtropical climate (with lots of water). In fact, there's been discussions about commercial coffee plantings here in San Diego.

Fascinating ..

Terratoonie,

I think it's going to happen here in San Diego, from what I've read.
