g'day michelle,

easy just twist the top of the pineapple peel off the bottom couple or
so layers of smaller leaves this will create a stub and you will be
able to see the nodules where the roots will come from, plant this
pretty much into any potting medium water it in keep it reasonably
well watered and in a place where it will get good sun even direct
full on sun.

they say if you let the top dry out a bit for 2 or 3 weeks will fruit
quicker, but then in your neck of the woods fruiting may take a long
time to occure anyway.
