Monrovia® Coffee is a popular tropical evergreen shrub with large glossy and textured foliage. If grown indoors the red fruits will not occur unless hand pollinated, but the lovely white flower clusters bloom in late spring after the plant matures at 3-5 yrs of age. Flowers best with full sun and rich, moist, well-drained soil.
