Growing Acai Trees at Home

Anyone can grow Acai Trees and have all the nutritional benefits of fresh Acai fruit anywhere in the country. Areas free of frost can grow Acai Trees outside with a few precautions. People living in other areas will need a greenhouse to provide the optimum conditions for their Acai Trees to flourish.  The Acai Trees will thrive under the right conditions and can tolerate cold temperatures down to 50 degrees Fahrenheit.

The Acai Trees can grow rapidly and a robust and healthy Acai Tree will produce massive amounts of fruit. The Acai Tree can also multiply and grow additional Acai Trees from its base. As the parent Acai Tree gets too large it can be harvested for its delicious “heart-of-palm”, perfect for salads and so much more wonderful than “hearts-of-palm” that comes in a can. Acai fruit can continue to be harvested from the numerous Acai Tree offspring. It is reported that the offspring Acai Trees produce even more fruit than the parent Acai Tree.
