Re:Tropical shrub identification - 2009/01/10 21:52 Hello Martin,
Most Coffee plants seem to have white flowers, (based on what I found online ),
but I have found several photos (see below) which I think are a good match to your pics.
Each was taken by various visitors of a greenhouse at Kew Gardens in London,
and they identify it as a Coffee (arabica) plant,
I'm imagining that there must be an identity tag to that effect.

Hope that helps,
I haven't found out too much else about it.

Thanks. My pics are from Sri Lanka, and a few berries have developed into a plant (in Europe).

Re:Tropical shrub identification - 2009/01/12 23:29 It's great that you found the answer,
and thank you so much for taking the trouble to return and share the information.
I always like to learn something new and I will do my very best to remember, in case it ever comes up again.

Happy growing Martin, it looks like a very cool plant,
heck, ya just gotta love anything called "Mickey Mouse", huh?

Re:Tropical shrub identification - 2009/02/05 08:07 That is not coffee...all though the beans look similar. That plant you have is called "mickey mouse plant"
you can research it on google.
