Here’s a complete Cinnamon Tree (Cinnamomum verum / Cinnamomum zeylanicum) care guide 🌿 — whether you’re growing it outdoors or in a pot:
Here’s a complete Cinnamon Tree care guide:
🌞 Light
-
Cinnamon trees thrive in bright, indirect sunlight to partial sun.
-
If outdoors, choose a spot with morning sun and light afternoon shade.
-
Indoors, place near a south or east-facing window with plenty of light.
🌡️ Temperature & Humidity
-
Prefers warm tropical to subtropical climates (25–35°C).
-
Avoid cold drafts or frost — it cannot tolerate temperatures below 15°C.
-
Loves high humidity — mist the leaves or use a pebble tray in dry climates.
💧 Watering
-
Keep soil consistently moist but never waterlogged.
-
Water when the top 2–3 cm of soil feels dry.
-
In winter, reduce watering slightly but don’t let the soil dry out completely.
🌱 Soil
-
Needs well-draining, rich soil.
-
Ideal mix: garden soil + compost + sand (2:1:1) or a tropical plant mix.
-
pH: 5.5–7.0 (slightly acidic to neutral).
🍽️ Fertilizer
-
Feed every 2 months during the growing season (spring to early autumn) with organic compost or liquid seaweed fertilizer.
-
Avoid strong chemical fertilizers — cinnamon prefers gentle feeding.
✂️ Pruning
-
Prune lightly once a year to shape the tree and remove weak or crossing branches.
-
Pruning also encourages new shoots — the bark from young stems is what’s harvested as cinnamon.
🌿 Propagation
-
Usually grown from seeds or stem cuttings.
-
Seeds should be fresh (they lose viability quickly).
-
Semi-hardwood cuttings can root if kept in warm, humid conditions with rooting hormone.
🪴 Pot Growing Tips
-
Start in a 10–12 inch pot with drainage holes.
-
Repot every 2–3 years to refresh soil and give more root space.
-
Keep outdoors in warm weather and move indoors during cold months.
🐛 Pests & Problems
-
Generally pest-resistant, but may attract:
-
Scale insects or mealybugs – remove with neem oil spray.
-
Leaf drop or yellowing – often due to overwatering or poor drainage.
-
🌳 Harvesting
-
After 2–3 years, stems can be cut near the base, and the outer bark peeled to collect cinnamon.
-
New shoots will regrow from the cut base.
🌺 Fun Fact
True cinnamon (Cinnamomum verum) is native to Sri Lanka and has a sweet, delicate aroma, while cassia cinnamon (Cinnamomum cassia) is stronger and more pungent.
