Let’s see some pictures. About how many pounds did it turn out to be? Can’t wait to hear the taste report. From what I e found on the Internet, these are bigger than the Zululand Queen that I’m growing.

Update here is the 2nd Natal Queen Pineapple of the Season it was 3.6 lbs

simon_grow · « **Reply #19 on:** July 04, 2018, 04:10:22 PM »

That’s a huge Fruit compared to my cocktail sized Zululand Queen. This sounds like a must have variety for the Pineapple connoisseur. Thanks for the update!
