Joosia standleyana is a small tree in the coffee family from the Andean cloud forests of Colombia, Ecuador and Peru. It is a rare wild species with little cultivation history, so care advice is limited and mostly inferred from its tropical montane habitat.
Joosia standleyana is a species of flowering plant in the family Rubiaceae. It is a small tree native to the Andes of southeastern Colombia, Ecuador, and northern and central Peru. It grows in montane tropical moist forests up to 2,700 metres elevation.
The species was described by Julian Alfred Steyermark in 1975.
