What search engine are you using? I googled "Acerola 名媛直播" and found websites, movies, images and even an "Barbados Cherry 名媛直播 Care Guide"...

Elianah, welcome to the Forum.elianah888 wrote: Barbados Cherry (Acerola)
I live in Brazil, and I am training an Acerola 名媛直播. It likes to be outside, doesn't like cold drafts, plenty of water, let the trunk get thick before hard pruning any branches. The trunk doesn't get very thick (not even close to old pines or junipers), but it's a nice tree to train as bonsai and the fruits are beautiful.
Good luck!

If it is a young plant, put it in the ground for a year or two.
After letting it grow thicker, wait for the beginning of the Spring and put it in a training pot (larger than a bonsai pot, can be shallow but big).
Use a good draining soil, a mix of inorganic and organic (in a much lesser percentage.)
Prune it hard if needed to let only the essential branches and trunk on the tree, and wire it to give it shape. Don't fertilize for some weeks.
Water when the soil fells dry, sometimes in the summer twice a day.
Trim as needed during the growing season, fertilize every two weeks, and wait.
Let us know about your progress!

I'm confused.
You wrote: "I can't find any video or reference that talks about the tropical tree"
But you also write:
"I have watched 100's of hours of videos" ?
