Pineapple?
JNJ wrote: I was watching a gardening show on DIY yesterday and they had a segment about planting a Pineapple. In the segment, the host takes a pineapple, twists the top off, and puts it in water to let it grow roots. Has anyone tried this and been successful? If so, did you use a pineapple from the supermarket or...? James I have one; I twisted the top off the pineapple and then let it dry out for a few days. Peeled the bottom leaves off to expose the adventitious root bumps, and planted it in some well drained potting soil. It has about doubled in size in a year, but I haven't been taking very good care of it over the winter. I'll put it in a bigger pot outside when the weather gets warm (June?). My brother has a bunch of pineapple seedlings. Grown from seeds taken from a golden pineapple. Best regards, Bob -- Have a Windows® computer that is powered on for hours at a time?
