by scaldude       more images... Remarks: It all started from planting the crown of a grocery store pineapple. It flowered naturally & although the fruit was a little smaller, it was sweeter and less acidic than the original. In addition to having another crown to plant, it also grew one sucker and three ratoons for propagation. Soon, I'll have a plantation on my balcony!     by scaldude    more remarks...
