Thank you! I was very excited to be able to successfully grow a pineapple plant indoors in a window that faces northeast. I wish I had a house with the ability to grow things in ideal conditions so being able to succeed with limited resources makes me very happy.
This is a pic of the window it has lived in for the last 5 years. I’d say it’s about 30 inches wide. My friend has one that is a decent amount larger but he has had it outside in the summer and in a larger pot. Mine has been confined to a smaller pot and treated like a succulent because I just assumed that it would grow the same way for whatever reason by being root bound and stressed a little with infrequent watering.

You’re welcome! For anyone else interested in the story about this pineapple adventure, check my previous posts.

I haven’t cut into it just yet because of a complicated situation with my diabetes but I figured all that out and I will probably have it for breakfast in the morning and then I will update this comment.

Yes! I originally cut the top off of a store bought pineapple and planted it and then after many years it grew a new pineapple fruit. The new pineapple is much smaller but the head on this baby is pretty large and healthy.

Final update on my pineapple plant journey. Time to eat this little guy and replant the top to do it all over again hopefully!

I hope I can keep the cycle going with this pineapple lineage for many generations to come.

Yes it has been in a north east facing window the whole time. I don’t think my apartment was quite warm enough for the plant to flower for a long time so it took longer than it should have but this year I got lucky I guess.
Well I originally propagated the plant from a store bought pineapple almost 5 years ago and it finally began to flower about 4 months ago. Check out my other posts on this sub I think this is the 4th post I’ve made since I first noticed It was starting to flower

Update on my pineapple plant. Check out the head of hair this baby grew!
