Congratulations! The wait must have been agonizing! Are you going to replace them with fresh suckers after the harvest?

Thanks! Yes, 7 years, lol. One of them produced a pineapple last year, so I'm going to see if I can get them to fruit again next year. I always thought pineapples were one-and-done, but I guess not!

My first pineapple fruited about 18 months ago, and then grew 5 pups? Storks? I was expecting 2-3 from what I read so I was pretty excited.

I also planted 3 more between 9-12 months, so was hoping something would grow this summer (Australia) but might have to wait for next year. I haven't seen any signs of fruiting yet.

Ah, pups! Weirdly mine haven't made any yet. Hoping it makes some this year. I did root the top of the pineapple that I grew last year, though, so now I have 3.
