Pineapples

Sugarloaf & Juicy

Pineapples are tropical fruits enjoyed fresh, juiced, or cooked, known for their sweet and tangy flavor. The plant grows as a low, rosette-shaped perennial, typically reaching 3-4 feet in height, making it ideal for food forests where it can act as a ground cover and help retain soil moisture. For cultivation, plant in well-draining soil with full sun, water regularly but avoid waterlogging, and propagate through the crown, slips, or suckers, with fruits typically ready for harvest 18-24 months after planting.
