while outside this is happening!

Is your pineapple top in a pot yet?

Look at the lawn! Spiderwort (Tradescantia.)

Another Tradescantia, fluminensis.

Snow expected here on Sunday, LOL

Pineapple: The second one went from fruit to overnight drying to rooting mix. it is currently browning the tips of the leaves, I might have left a few to many on it, but time will tell. The first is still in water. I noticed a mildewed spot and when I cleaned it off, found an ulceration. I have rinsed it off and changed the water out. It is back in the water cup, with the water level kept below the ulcerated spot. I will now check it daily till something one way or another happens.

I kept forgetting to grab a pineapple when I'm at the grocery store. I most definite my want to try growing one.

Its fourty degrees today. I'm glad I haven't attempted to plant anything outside.

jamilalshaw they are fun and the fruit tastes good too! It was only 44 here today.

How long does it take them to bear fruit?

From what I've read/seen, about 2-4 yrs, depending on conditions.

All of the existing leaves fell off of mine as it was taking root but new ones grew in quickly.

Pictures???

Not much to show at the moment of mine. The one in water was starting to rot on me so I have quickly put it into straight sand as a rooting medium Like a small fruit cup with 1/2 inch of sand in the bottom. Too soon to tell if it is working. The one I have in potting soil looks about the same. When I grew these in my yard in Florida, it would take about 3 years to fruit. They need a lot of sun to set fruit. Commercial growers plant them in full sun. As a house plant they will tolerate Bright with some sun.
