Growing Pineapples

My wife purchased a pineapple in the store some time ago, I wanted to see what would happen if I took the leafy top of the fruit and planted it in the garden.

I placed it in a tub that I was growing Swiss chard in. To my delight, is started to grow. I have since placed three more tops in the same tub. I am going to transplant them into small pots in a few weeks.

I have since read of several ways to grow pineapples, this will be a great adventure.
