Comment on Final update on my pineapple plant journey. Time to eat this little guy and replant the top to do it all over again hopefully!

  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!
