Although still used as broomstock, this is primarily grown for fall decorations. A new mini vegetable. Plants are compact and bear loads of miniature fruit that can be deep fried whole. One of the new rages in miniature veggies. Perfect for container raising.
Fruits are very tasty.
We offer this quaint plant because of the many requests we have had for it. The dried insides of the fruit do make good sponges. Also good for salads. A coffee plant that requires no tree shading and is a very heavy producer. Should be raised for houseplants even if you don't like coffee.
