I hope I can keep the cycle going with this pineapple lineage for many generations to come.
In between life, we garden.

Is that how it works? The fruit can regenerate from the head? Bcos I just cut up a pineapple for munchies.
Yes! I originally cut the top off of a store bought pineapple and planted it and then after many years it grew a new pineapple fruit. The new pineapple is much smaller but the head on this baby is pretty large and healthy.
Was just gonna say - it's disproportionate, but very cute! How large does the plant get, and can it be done indoors?
This is a pic of the window it has lived in for the last 5 years. I’d say it’s about 30 inches wide. My friend has one that is a decent amount larger but he has had it outside in the summer and in a larger pot. Mine has been confined to a smaller pot and treated like a succulent because I just assumed that it would grow the same way for whatever reason by being root bound and stressed a little with infrequent watering.
Thanks! Might decide to give it a try sometime!
