Memory Lane, 4th May 2022: When I grow up I want to be a pineapple

I’ve posted before about growing pineapple plants from the top of a fruit that has been eaten. I’ve been keeping working at it and had a couple of successes along with quite a few failures. I suspect it’s something that needs to be done relatively early in the year (perhaps mid-Spring?) so there’s enough warmth and daylight to encourage them to grow. Of course these days when Spring actually happens is anyone’s guess.

But I keep plugging away, and here is my latest attempt, in a jar of water in the greenhouse.

My first successful plant is still growing. I really must post a photo of that.
