The better you choose the location for your coffee plant, the easier it is to take care of it. While old plants also tolerate direct sun well, young coffee plants prefer light shade. However, if the coffee plant is too dark, it gets brown leaves.
The coffee plant likes to be bright and warm
Coffea arabica is very suitable as a houseplant. Room temperatures between 20 °C and 25 °C are almost ideal. In winter it can be a bit cooler. In the summer, an outdoor pitch is an excellent alternative, provided it's sheltered from the wind and warm.
The ideal location in brief:
- warm
- bright
- Young plants not in the blazing sun
- Older plants like full sun
- Seeds and cuttings: warm and humid
- like to be outside in summer
- brown leaves with too little light
tips
Do not place your young coffee plant in the blazing sun, as it only tolerates it as it gets older. In addition, she should slowly get used to it.
