My pineapple plant
Roy Martin:
Remember last spring when we talked about starting a pineapple plant? Here is a picture of mine started past spring. It will produce pineapples this coming season. It looks a little drab because I left it outside in too much rain a month or so ago.Its over 2 feet tall which is almost as tall as they get.

will you have to plant that in the ground before it will produce fruit? I have seen thousands of pineapples growing in the field in Hawaii, but can you grow them in a pot?? they get pretty big in the ground! cool plant!!

Roy Martin:
Its ready for a larger pot. It will go into a smart pot which self prunes the roots by air. Yes it will produce fruit in a pot. I've done it before. No store bought pineapple can even compare to one ripened on the plant. Sweet is an understatement.

That's a nice looking plant Roy. I can't wait to see your little pineapple start growing from it, so keep the pics coming on it's progress. I may even start me one too, as I would love to taste a truly fresh pineapple.
mercy, peace and love
