Cocoa Fruit Plant

Watering: Keep soil consistently moist but not soggy. It prefers slightly humid conditions — misting the leaves helps indoors.

Sunlight: Loves dappled or filtered sunlight. Outdoors, keep it under light shade. Indoors, place near a bright window without harsh rays.

Soil: Use a rich, loamy mix with good drainage. Adding organic compost or cocopeat boosts moisture retention and nutrients.

Temperature: Keep it warm and protected — this is a tropical native! Avoid cold drafts or temperatures below 15°C.

Fertilizing: Feed monthly with a balanced organic fertilizer. During fruiting, a potassium boost can help enhance pod development.

Pruning: Trim for shape and airflow. Remove weak or crossing branches to keep it healthy and bushy.

💡 Each beautiful pod contains cacao beans — the raw form of chocolate! Even if you don’t process them, the yellow-orange fruits and white pulp are an exotic joy to grow and share.

The Plant That Grows Chocolate: It’s true — this is the real deal! The same tree used to make chocolate globally. Owning one is like having a living chocolate factory at home.

Tropical, Lush & Beautiful: With glossy leaves and pod-covered stems, this plant looks like it belongs in a rainforest. A natural conversation starter.

Rare in Home Gardens: You won’t find this in regular plant shops. Cacao is a rare gem for collectors and exotic growers.

Great Indoors & Outdoors: Grows well in large containers or greenhouses. Just provide warmth and humidity — and it’ll reward you.

Educational & Fun: Perfect for families, schools, or plant lovers who want to grow something meaningful and magical.

🌱 The Cocoa Tree is more than just a plant — it’s an experience. Grow it, share it, and one day, even make your own chocolate.
