Pineapples from pineapples!

Dont waste the tops of your pineapples! If you have space in your garden, plant the tops. They grow quite big so make sure you give them enough space. Apparently they grow happily in shady or sunny spots, in the ground or in pots. I have planted a few and they have taken nicely. They take a long time to give you fruit (a year or more) but if you have the space, why not grow some pineapples. How fun! Cut the tops off, remove fruit and bottom leaves (like in the picture above) and stick them in the ground. Water them in the beginning every day or so so they can root themselves.
