i used all of its name variants to assist in future searches.

i have tried growing two Acai palms here, one died and my current one doesnt look happy, browning tips and no growth.

has anyone grown one here or know much about them, its hard to find information about growing them here in South Florida.

right now my Acai is about six inches tall in a 3 inch pot in normal potting mix.

i would love one day to have a specimen like this

Hello Sour Diesel,
Please forgive me if this sounds dumb but is this the source of the acai supplement?

yes, Acai is becoming very popular as a "superfood", who knows if it deserves the hype.

on a side note i took a hiatus from this group for a few months, some may remember me as boom_1

Hi,

I am growing acai too. Mine are about 1 ft tall, and still growing well. I think it's important with good draining in the soil for acai. I also remember reading somewhere that the seeds should not should be fully under the soil.
