COFFEE (Coffea Arabica) PB 3 40cm
A cone shaped shrub with shallow roots growing 3-4m, evergreen with very glossy green leaves, white flowers in spring with jasmine scent. Self fertile.

Keep moist and feed well. Need warm conditions to establish but will tolerate light frost once grown. They also need serious shelter from wind.

FRUIT SALAD PLANT (Monstera deliciosa) PB5 50cm
There is no other fruit quite like this. The monstera forms a very large, lily-like flower, with a huge stamen, which develops into a fruit the shape of a corn cob, but a little larger. The surface of the fruit is covered in hexagonal scales or segments which lift as the fruit ripens. The flavour is sweet and fragrant, something like a mix of pineapple and banana. The plant itself is a vine in its native Guatemala, but will happily grow as a clumping shrub, if given light. Not that it needs a lot – it will fruit in quite shady situations, but hates wind, and fruit will not ripen in cold areas. Often grown as a pot plant indoors (where it won’t fruit). The huge, lush dark green leaves make this a wonderful understorey plant in the subtropical jungle.It has a vigorous root system that is reputed to invade drains, so don't plant it near them!
