Pineapple Plant - Bromeliad 'Yellow Pineapple' - 6" Pot

The Pineapple Plant (Ananas comosus) is a tropical beauty known for its ornamental appeal and delicious fruit. Native to South America, this plant is part of the Bromeliad family and thrives in warm, humid environments. It has long, sword-like leaves arranged in a rosette, and once mature, it produces a single pineapple fruit. Each plant flowers only once in its lifetime but creates pups or offsets that can be propagated for continued growth. The Pineapple Plant is a fantastic addition to both indoor and outdoor gardens, bringing a touch of the tropics to any space.

In its natural habitat, the Pineapple Plant is an epiphyte, growing on other plants and drawing moisture from the air. When grown indoors, it thrives in bright, indirect light and requires well-draining soil to prevent root rot. With minimal care, this plant can reward you with striking foliage and, with patience, a homegrown pineapple.
