Coffea magnistipula is a wild shrub species of coffee, native to the rainforests of Cameroon and Gabon in West Africa and not commonly grown as a crop. It is unusual among coffees for its large stipules that trap water and debris and for its adventitious roots.
Coffea magnistipula is a species of flowering plant in the family Rubiaceae. It is a shrub species of Coffea that is endemic to the Lower Guinean forests of tropical West Africa, specifically the South Cameroon Plateau and the Chaillu Massif of Gabon.
