How long from planting to fruit? And do you fertilize with anything?
Looks yummy and what a beautiful color!!!! And how is the taste?
oh your pineapples are beautiful! I'm jelly. I've been growing one from a top for a couple of years outside and now it's starting to bloom. I was really surprised, I didn't think it would fruit outdoors here! My pineapple plant isn't nearly as nice as yours are though!

My pineapple plant isn't nearly as nice as yours are though! Thanks. I keep mine in pots and move them to the unheated garage when it gets too cold for them. Then I just leave them there till it's safe to bring them outside. I even experimented this year and left a couple outside on the back porch. Then I noticed that these in garage started to flower and the outside ones didn't. So I brought them in garage too and in a few weeks they gave me flowers.
Thanks guys. I have no idea what variety it is. Rooted store bought pineapple crown.
Sweet stripes pineapple baby plants from Adam. And... ta-da...

The ones I have seen have been from Costa Rica, possibly honduras IIRC
Adam, so you never had one to taste? I got 2 bigger plants with 2 pups and these smaller ones from you with one pup. So far I got 7, haha, I won't count the other ones. Hope to get some fruits next year.
