Red Pineapple (Ananas bracteatus)

Red Pineapple is a striking ornamental bromeliad known for its vibrant foliage and showy red fruit. The plant forms a rosette of arching, sword-like leaves that are often flushed with red, especially in strong light. In the centre, it produces a small, bright red pineapple that’s more decorative than edible but highly prized for its tropical appearance.

This cultivar adds colour and texture to patios, conservatories, and warm indoor spaces. While the fruit is not typically eaten, the plant is grown for its dramatic foliage and unique structure. A fantastic choice for collectors of tropical or architectural plants.
