===3. Liberica coffee (Coffea liberica)===
Liberica coffee, scientifically known as Coffea liberica, has the remarkable ability to grow and thrive in both high and low altitudes. This coffee variety exhibits a versatile nature that allows it to adapt to diverse environmental conditions and flourish in different altitudes. Whether it is cultivated in the highlands or the lowlands, Liberica coffee can thrive and produce quality beans, making it a suitable choice for coffee growers seeking flexibility in selecting their plantation locations.
Liberica like all other coffee trees takes about 3 to 5 years to bear fruits. The journey from flower to the first stage of green fruit lasts approximately 3 months, and it takes another nine months for the fruit to mature into a ripe cherry. While one year is a general timeframe, external factors such as climate and weather conditions can extend this period by an additional 3 months.
