A white-fleshed variety that’s dark green and purple in color during growth. Similar to Sugarloaf, the fruit is very sweet reminiscent of pina colada. Core is soft and edible. The ripe fruit gives little scent and only slight color change so watch closely.

_________________________________________________________________________

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.

Among the best!
The only automatic wine opener I found with five stars. Used it daily since purchased and agree (thus far) it has earned every one of them. I have several bottles with stubborn corks that challenge every manual opener I've had. This tool handles them with ease. Especially neat is the way it "spits out" the cork after extraction. Very attractively and well packaged. Add a little gift paper and you're set. (Daily use since purchased and not even close to needing to be charged).

Nice features
I have only had this item a few weeks. But I like it very much. It’s better than the one it replaced. I like that I only have to press and release the button to pull out the cork and then it releases the cork automatically. Only charged once so far and is still fully charged. Also a blue LED is lit when cork is being removed and a red LED is lit when it is releasing the cork.

Don't Waste Your Money!
I thought this was going to be good. First bottle opened OK, though the device obviously struggled to get the cork out. Used for 3 or 4 bottles. on the last two, I had to manually turn the device to get the corkscrew in - then pull the cork out. Cork is in the device and it won't come out. UNFORTUNATELY I THREW OUT THE PACKAGING, SO NOT SURE WHAT IF ANYTHING I CAN DO WITH IT OTHER THAN THROW IT OUT. NOTE: I did try recharging the device after each use, though it made no difference.
