-
Common Name / Synonym: Kent Arabica / Historic Indian Coffee / Heritage Specialty Coffee
-
Plant Type: Tropical and subtropical evergreen multi-stemmed shrub / perennial commercial crop
-
Sun Requirements: Partial shade to filtered bright sunlight (Prefers dappled shade or morning sun with protection from intense, scorching midday rays to support lush foliage development and healthy cherry maturation).
-
Soil / Medium: Thrives in a rich, loose, highly well-draining loamy or volcanic soil mix amended with abundant organic matter and a slightly acidic to neutral pH (6.0 to 6.5). Superior drainage is essential.

Temperature: Thrives in warm tropical and subtropical highland environments (Ideal temperature range: 18°C to 28°C / 64°F to 82°F). Protect from harsh frost and freezing temperatures.
🌱 Pro Growing Tip: To accelerate and maximize germination success with your Kent Coffee seeds, de-husk the parchment gently if needed, soak the seeds in clean warm water for 24 to 48 hours prior to planting, and sow them flat-side down in a warm, loose, sterile, highly organic seed-starting medium under 50% shade!
