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.

Cozy, Stylish, and Perfect for Cold Days
Size: One Size, Color: Merlot
This beanie is absolutely perfect! The alpaca material feels incredibly soft and plush without being itchy, and it keeps my head warm without overheating. The fit is just right — snug but not tight — and it looks great with both casual and dressier winter outfits. I also love the Merlot color; it’s rich, flattering, and adds a nice pop without being too bold. It feels well-made and holds its shape nicely after wearing. Love it!

Fantastic texture
Size: One Size, Color: Skyway, Size: One Size, Color: Skyway
Finally, I had found a beanie that provides the warmth of wool, without itchy-ness. Love the texture! This beanie is awesome and exceeded my expectations; definitely the most comfortable winter hat I have ever had. It is well constructed, plush, and the fit is spot on. It fits snug, providing warmth, with out suffocating or leaving marks on my forehead. Additionally, the beanie is temperature adaptive while wicking away sweat when used functionally like during snow boarding. Moreover, it versatile and stylish enough for everyday use. Highly recommend

Comfy and so cute.
Size: One Size, Color: Skyway, Size: One Size, Color: Skyway
This alpaca beanie is just plain cozy. Super soft, comfy, and surprisingly warm. It fits well (the one-size actually works), and it sits nicely without feeling tight or slipping around. I get compliments every time I wear it. Great for cold days, football games, or just when I want something cozy with a little personality.

Very comfortable
Size: One Size, Color: Heather Beech
How I Use It: I’ve been using this beanie for two months. Features that stood out to me: The beanie works great; and I also really liked the knitting; it really holds together well and stays on your head. The material is soft and really keeps your head warm while also breaths, so your head doesn't get too sweaty. My Personal Experience: If I compare this one against the others I’ve used, this one is just plain better. I wasn’t expecting to like the actual cashmere material as much as I do. Pros and Cons: What was good: cashmere soft and warm, great construction, nice color, affordable What was not good: none Durability: After two months, it still does its job the first time every time with no fuss. I can’t really ask for more. Final Thoughts: Overall, it has been good for me and my needs, and I’d buy it again.

Very warm beanie
Size: One Size, Color: Wine, Size: One Size, Color: Wine
This hat is very well made and super warm. I have not worn it while it was snowing or raining, so I’m not sure how well it would hold up if it gets wet. However, I hand washed very gently with some woolite followed the instruction for drying and it dried well. The color is a nice deep plum. It is folded at the bottom and can be adjusted to cover ears or accommodate a longer head shape. The material is as you would expect of cashmere and soft. It still has a good knit structure and doesn’t get stretched out. It’s a little bit of a lint and hair magnet though, so might need a lint roller (especially if you have dogs or cats). I’m just shocked by how warm it keeps my head and ears in temps that are in the teens, even with wind. Very happy with this hat.
