Grow a cinnamon tree indoors in a container that has drainage holes and light, somewhat acidic potting soil. An example is the kind of potting soil intended for African violets. Set the container on a windowsill where tree will get sunlight for at least part of the day.

Cinnamon is also naturally seen in the forests of the Western Ghats in India. The dried inner bark of Cinnamon is used as a spice and this tree can reach up to a height of 6 to15 meters on full growth.
