Product Description Aloha! I’m the Pineapple — or as Hawaiians call me, hala-kahiki, the “foreign hala.” My history is a global mystery, but I’ve found my true home in Hawaii. I’m a tropical icon, beloved for my sweet fruit and spiky, sculptural form. When people think of Hawaii, they think hula, palms, and yes — pineapples! Growing me is a rewarding, slow-blooming journey. I’ll thrive in warm, sunny conditions, and with time (usually 18–24 months), I’ll produce a golden pineapple right from my center. Indoors or outdoors, I bring paradise wherever I grow. Even without fruit, I’m a gorgeous houseplant — compact, quirky, and full of tropical flair. I love warmth, sunshine, and a bit of space to stretch my leaves! What You’ll Get One (1) live pineapple plant, potted in a 4-inch pot. No fruit yet, but growing strong and ready to thrive in the right conditions. Care Tips Light: Full sun; minimum 6–8 hours of light daily Water: Keep evenly moist; do not let water sit in crown for long Fertilizer: Use a 10-10-10 foliar fertilizer every 2–3 months Growth Rate: Slow — fruit forms in 18–24 months Other Notes: Well-draining media is essential; transplant if roots get crowded Show more
