A large  fruit with white flesh and edible core. Very sweet and a favored variety among growers. Common in Hawaii and sometimes referred to as ‘Kona’ Sugarloaf.  The plant has no spines on its leaves.

________________________________________________________________________________________

Latin name - Ananas comosus

Pineapple plants are one of the most ubiquitous tropical fruit plants. Surprisingly, these bromeliads are in the same family as tree-dwelling epiphytes like Spanish moss.

The fruits are familiar, highly-palatable, and fun to grow. Pineapple plants prefer well-draining, sandy/loamy soil as their primary nemesis is root-rot. Container-growing your pineapples is absolutely acceptable and they take quite well to fruiting in a pot.

Pineapple plants, although fairly low-growers, create a wide footprint with their broad leaves. Feel free to cut leaves back out of your walking paths. Commercial growers practice this method regularly with no effect on fruit production.

After about 70-80 leaves have been produced (variety-dependent), a pineapple will begin to produce it’s flowering stem. Pineapples are seedless unless grown closely with other varieties or hand-pollinated for seed production. In the wild, pineapples are primarily pollinated by hummingbirds, but zero pollination is required to yield delicious fruits.

Pineapple fruits are high in water content (86%) and provide a rich source of manganese and Vitamin C. You’re likely well-aware that pineapples are widely used in drinks, confections, fruit salads, and straight up.

A little pineapple history…

Pineapples have been cultivated for centuries in their indigenous region of Central and South America, but were not introduced in Europe until the 17th century. It’s moniker is owed to the tendency of European explorers to name any novel round fruits “apples.” 

Explorer John Smith was one of the first to utter the term “pineapple” to describe this fruit in 1624. By the late 1700’s and early 1800’s, wealthy Europeans installed greenhouses or imported pineapples for display purposes, cycling them through use as centerpieces until they began to rot.

In the 1800’s, commercial production of select cultivars like ‘Smooth Cayenne’ began. The ‘Smooth Cayenne’ cultivar achieved worldwide diaspora as it was favored for commercial growth throughout Europe, Hawaii, Australia, and Africa.

How long until my pineapple fruits?

The time from planting to harvest depends on the part of the plant you are using to propagate the pineapple. Use the guide below to set your expectations regarding harvest timeline:

-Pineapple Crowns (the top of the fruit) can produce a new crop within 12-18 months.

-Pineapple Pups/Suckers (off-shoots from the side of the plant itself) can produce a new crop within 18-24 months.

-Pineapple Slips (baby plants taken from the bottom of a pineapple fruit) can produce a new crop after about 24+ months.

When to pick pineapples…

Pineapples typically mature in the warmest months. In South Florida, harvest season rolls from June through September. You can tell your fruit is ready to pick when color change begins and the fruit begins to emit scent. Some gardeners are able to leave their pineapples on the plant until full yellow coloration; Gardeners with rodent pests should pick their fruits as soon as yellow blush appears to avoid loss of your precious fruits.

Once in a while, you may experience the glory of an off-season pineapple at Thanksgiving or Christmas-time.

Works great!
Size: 180 Count (Pack of 1)
Purchased this item at the recommendation of my PCP to help alleviate my Charlie Horses in my legs. Take 3 tabs an hour or so before bedtime, and it solved that issue.

best sleep aid I have found
Item Package Quantity: 1, Style: 240 Count (Pack of 1)
this is the best sleep aid I have found. This dissolves under the tongue, goes right into your system and I take two of them every night. They do not work like a sleeping pill and knock you out immediately--- they are natural and take longer plus I feel you need time to get them in your system and feel a difference. Therefore I did not expect immediate results. I have had insomnia for years so I took them for a couple of months when I started noticing the most effect. Now when I take them and let them dissolve under my tongue I know that in about 30 minutes or less I will start to feel drowsy and will naturally go to sleep. Over time I have felt my sleep has deepened and now I rarely awaken during the night. By the way, in the beginning of my search to solve my insomnia problem, I tried taking the melatonin pills that you just swallow but did not get the same results that I have gotten with these that I put under my tongue. Excellent company and excellent product.
