Lets see how he will go with cold temp. The coffe plants are great but i will not put them on ground. I think i will loose them if i plant them on ground.

I guess you can keep them in big pots, and make them fruit that way. Anyway, it can't hurt to put one or two in the ground, if I remembre weel I sent you quite a few, so you can take some risk.

I'm dying to try the coffe fruits. I read they have amazing health properties...
Wow, very nice plants Grapebush, your site seems to be in hills is that right? So you don't get any hard freezes there? Thanks for sharing great pic's
Congratulations on your nice harvest, Nelio. It looks like a painting with all the different colors.I planted coffee in the north of Portugal 3 years ago - of the 'normal' variety you can buy in big garden centers here. I must have planted 20 to 30 one year old seedlings - none of them survived the first winter... But I am more northerly than Luis...Tea did survive, but coffee didn't, so guess what I'll be drinking...
Here's a little update, on some of my plants, that are now fruiting or flowering, or just developing nicely.Another mango tree. This one always flowers like crazy, but sets very poorly, and most fruits come with some kind of deformation, and end up aborting before ripening... (this year is the last chance for it to deliver me some good fruit, or next year, will be topworked, or replaced by something else...).
