PLANTING A PINEAPPLE

PLANTING A PINEAPPLE

Once your sweet Maui Gold® pineapple is just a delicious memory, you can grow your own pineapple plant and enjoy this delectable fruit again in about 18 months.

PLANTING DIRECTIONS:

  1. Choose a pineapple with green, fresh leaves.
  2. Remove top of pineapple by twisting it off. 
  3. Peel back leaves around base so bottom layers are exposed.
  4. Let the crown dry out for 1-2 weeks.
  5. Plant the crown 2-3 inches deep in well-draining soil.
  6. Provide plenty of sunshine.
  7. Water occasionally. Allow the soil to dry out between waterings. (pineapples are drought resistant)
  8. In about 18-24 months you should have your very own Maui Gold Pineapple!
