VERY SWEET, MY FAVOURITE PINEAPPLE. OF A SOFTER CONSISTENCY, BECAUSE OF THIS IT IS GETTING RARER AS IT DOES NOT SHIP WELL COMPARED TO NEWER VARIETIES. IT ALSO IS A RELATIVELY SMALL FRUIT.
‘Ripley’ or ‘Ripley Queen’, ,grown in Queensland, is a dwarf, compact plant with crimson tinge on leaves; takes 22 weeks from flowering to fruit maturity; is an irregular bearer. The fruit weighs 1.36-2.7 kg; is pale-copper externally; flesh is pale-yellow, non-fibrous, very sweet and rich. InFlorida this cultivar tends to produce suckers without fruiting.http://www.itfnet.org/v1/2016/05/pineapple-common-varieties/Well, if it's grown in FL, where we can find it to purchase? I would like to have this one in my collection.
