A couple of weeks ago I inquired if anyone had had any luck propagating pineapple from the top of a grocery store pineapple. I had cleaned one up, used rooting powder and popped it in soil but honestly wasn’t holding my breath. This morning I checked on it and lo and behold we have new growth coming in! The good and bad of this little experiment is that I am going to have to clean out my garage to make room for numerous outdoor plants that are currently thriving but have to overwinter somewhere they won’t freeze. I’ve got outdoor succulent pots, and hibiscus plants as well.

    I’ve had great success as well as a friend of mine did the same thing. She was the one that showed me hers which made me try it. Mine was doing wonderful until I neglected it outside when the temps dropped when I should’ve brought it inside. But at the time I had nowhere to put it and having cats. But now we have a sunroom added that our cats don’t have access to so seeing this makes me want to try it again. It was super easy to propagate.

      It absolutely should. They are tropical plants so if I managed it in a cooler zone you should have no problem with it. They are part of the bromeliad family and native to South America.
