PINEAPPLE

I had never thought about how Pineapples grow until I  visited Hawaii. I didn’t see a plantation like the one in the photo, but I saw tiny pineapples growing in the lobby of a 5 star resort. At the time I thought it was odd to have pineapples growing around such a grand water feature in such a grand lobby, but I was delighted by the darling little pineapples there. Now I am so glad I did get to see, first hand, this amazing plant. Pineapple plants grow for two or three years before they will produce a pineapple and may grow up to three pineapples in its life cycle. The  fruit itself may take up to 24 months to grow to maturity.
Did you know that a pineapple is really a berry? True!🍍
