Along the way, most of the varieties planted in Yunnan are Katim, which is a hybrid of Kaddura and Robusta, a branch of the bourbon line in the Arabica species. The reason for planting this variety is that Katim has the Robusta gene, so it is better than a single old variety in disease resistance, and the yield is good. Compared with the delicate old variety, the disease resistance is poor and the yield is low. Farmers naturally prefer to plant Katim. So now there has been a Katim wind in Yunnan.

Tibica grows coffee trees. Tibica is an old variety of Arabica species. It is also known as Kona Hawaii and the Blue Mountains of Jamaica. In the vast expanse of Katim, it is easy to recognize. After careful observation, you will find that each species has its own appearance, Katim's leaves are hanging down, the tree shape seems to be wearing a cloak. Tiebika, on the other hand, has upward branches and new leaves on the top of the tree.

Coffee trees in Arabica are not easy to grow, many are on high-altitude slopes, and picking needs to be done manually. But it is better to have a balanced taste and less caffeine. And Robasta is relatively easy to grow, a variety of heat-resistant, cold-resistant, moisture-resistant, drought-resistant, disease-resistant. Once upon a time, coffee in Vietnam was planted by Robasta because of leaf rust and all the coffee trees planted in Arabica died. In addition, Rothbata is also relatively easy to harvest, in addition to manual vibration machines can also be competent. This variety has all kinds of benefits, but what is fatal is that the coffee beans produced are poor in aroma, lack of bitterness, lack of acidity, and high caffeine content, so they are mostly used to make instant coffee. Now most of the beans on the market are grown in Arabica.

Coffee is a short-day plant. Coffee has the characteristics of multiple flowering and concentrated florescence. The florescence of small seed coffee in Yunnan is from February to July, and the flowering period is from March to May. The flowering of coffee is greatly affected by climate, especially rainfall and temperature. Coffee flowers have a short life span of only 2-3 days. Small seed coffee usually opens at 3: 5 in the morning and blooms at 5: 00 to 7: 00.
