Description

The listing, Acerola (15 seeds) has ended.

Acerola is cultivated in the tropics and subtropics throughout the world. The fruit is edible and widely consumed in the species' native area, and is cultivated elsewhere for its high vitamin C content. There are 1677.6 mg of vitamin C in 100 g of fruit. The fruit can be used to make juices and pulps, vitamin C concentrate, and baby food, among other things.
Acerola is a popular bonsai subject because of its small leaf, fruit and fine ramification. It is also grown as an ornamental and for hedges.
It is one of three ingredients in a proprietary herbal medicine for allergic rhinitis

Questions & Comments

Hello. Look gorgeous on the photo. Water? Sun? Soil? Can be planted in pots?

Lots of sun, water and almost any soil is good for the acerola. You can have it in pots, but it grows smaller and takes longer to bear fruit.
