I put 2 more pineapple tops into pots this morning. One of them I may have waited to long. It was really looking dried out. I throw my back out last weekend and never got around to cutting the pineapple up end up have to feed pineapple to the chickens. The other one I just picked up today it looks really good.

Yes it will take 2 to 3 year but produce a pineapple and then continue to produce after that. They are hardy in zone 10 and 11. But Iām in 9b. I just have to cover them if it freezes at night other wise they grow great in pots
Yes. It will take a couple of years to bear fruit and the first fruits will be rather small.
It's like the sweet potato in a jar of water thing like we did in school when we were kids. You can take the prunings from tomatoes and plant them, too.

In the future, when you can't plant them right away, you can put them in a jar of water. The roots will start and the leaves will not brown.

Thanks that is normally what I do. But I was in so much pain this week I didnāt even cut up the pineapple.
@Donto101 understandable!
I did one this morning.

I did not know you could do that. I love the idea. We always had a huge garden when I was growing up and fruit trees plus some grapes. I remember grabbing the salt shaker and heading to the garden for a nice fresh tomato peeking out somewhere.

Posted by KateOahuI saw some pretty flowers on a walk today. I’d never seen a white Hibiscus before. And I do not know what the pink flowers are.
