<p>I don't remember, whether or not it was stated in the anime, where devil fruits grow. They always just "appear".</p>

<p>The only thing I know is that they can grow in any weather condition, because when Luffy meets Chopper he already has devil fruit abilities, but he never left the Drum Island in his life.</p>
