'Coffee Cups' is a dark-stemmed tropical beauty that truly lives up to its name! The large, dark green cupped leaves will collect rainwater (not coffee!) until there's enough that stem bends under the weight, pouring water out. The medium-tall height allows for a wide range of planting options and the ability to create amazing, layered looks.
