House Plants

This is me casually entering into the Creative Collective

jk I'm chickening out because I didn't decorate my pot and I don't have any nice photos. 

My plant is Aromatic Coffee (Arabica Nana). Some of you may remember I got this plant a while ago (I think December) but nothing happened. I had given up on it, but hadn’t gotten around to throwing it away. Then suddenly last week I noticed a sprout! So I guess I should learn about it now.

-It is originally from Ethiopia.

-I found out that I was supposed to soak the seeds for 24hr before planting. Well that’s one of the reasons why it sprouted so slowly.

-It likes full to partial sun so I’ve put it in my south window.

-It likes to be warm and humid so I put a plastic cup on it to act as a shitty green house.

-It should be in fast draining soil, but it should be damp all the time.

-It should be fertilized every 2 weeks. I’ll get on that.

-It doesn’t need much pruning until it’s a lot older. Yay.

-It falls into the evergreen family, although it has small leaves. Interesting.

-It has small white flowers, but it probably won’t bloom for about 3 years. Boo.

-the fruit will be yellow on the outside.
