• Common Name / Synonym: Metu Bishari Wild Coffee / Ethiopian Specialty Coffee Bean

• Plant Type: Evergreen tropical understory shrub / small tree

• Sun Requirements: Partial shade to dappled sunlight (Prefers bright, indirect light or understory conditions mimicking its native forest habitat; protect from harsh, scorching direct midday sun).

• Soil / Medium: Thrives in rich, fertile, slightly acidic, and exceptionally well-draining loamy soils packed with organic matter.

• Watering: Provide regular, consistent moisture to keep the soil evenly damp but never waterlogged. Regular watering is essential during active growth and cherry development.

🌱 Pro Growing Tip: To maximize germination success, soak the coffee seeds in clean water for 24 to 48 hours to hydrate the parchment layer, then plant them about 1/2 inch deep in a warm, loose, sterile, and well-draining starting mix, keeping the soil consistently moist in a warm, shaded environment until sprouts emerge!
