Cinnamon Tree

$139.99
Title
Indoor cinnamon trees can eventually reach a height of 6 to 8 feet (1.8–2.4 meters) inside a home. You can easily control its shape and height by pruning the main stems in early spring. Snipping the branches forces the plant to branch out, creating a much bushier canopy and releasing a pleasant, therapeutic cinnamon fragrance into the room. While it can mature into a large tree outdoors, it adapts beautifully to container life and serves as a highly aromatic, glossy-leaved structural houseplant.

Common Pests

Mealybugs

Mealybugs

What To Look For: White, cottony or waxy masses on stems, leaf axils, underside of leaves. Sticky honeydew, sooty mold growth, yellowing or dropping leaves.

How To Treat: Use a cotton swab dipped in rubbing alcohol to dab and remove visible bugs. Wash leaves and stems with gentle soapy water. In heavy infestations, consider removing very affected stems/leaves or, in the worst case, replacing the plant.

Spider Mites

Spider Mites

What To Look For: Very fine webbing under leaves or between stems and leaves (especially in dry indoor air). Leaves may appear stippled (tiny yellow or white dots) or dusty; they may turn yellow, brown or drop. When you tap a leaf onto white paper, you might see tiny moving specks. (Often too small to see easily)

How To Treat: Increase humidity around the plant (since mites thrive in dry air). Spray plant thoroughly (both sides of leaves) with insecticidal soap or a miticide/plant-safe oil; repeat every few days. In heavy infestations, consider removing severely affected sections; isolate the plant.
