This species is highly sought after for its beautiful small, white, star-shaped flowers. The tree can bloom continuously for up to nine months, producing new flowers continuously. The leaves are small, have a beautiful sheen, and the tree has a very compact growth habit. When the numerous flowers are fertilized, red berries develop. The species is known as a Tea family from the Fukien Province, hence its name: Fukien Tea. Trees from (sub)tropical regions are accustomed to more or less constant annual temperatures. Unlike trees from our climate, they don't require a dormant period with a drop in temperature and leaf shedding. This makes these species perfectly suited for indoor cultivation. In the summer, when temperatures exceed 15 degrees Celsius, they also thrive outdoors, for example on a patio. Generally, they will thrive better outdoors due to the better climatic conditions (humidity, light, and fresh air).
