The Gardener's Delight Gift Pineapple is one of our sweetest, juiciest ripe 4lb pineapples on the stalk with 10-12 ready to plant pineapple slips ringing the base of the fruit. Each slip is a genetic clone of the mother plant that produced these large fruits. Just think of all the delicious pineapples from your garden next year! Some of these plants fruited in as little at 8months from planting.
If you've never tasted a local St. Croix grown pineapple that was ripened on the plant, do yourself a favor and order one while these are still available. These 4lb beauties are sooooooo sweet and juicy, and nothing like the ones you'll find shipped in to the grocery.
Considered by many to be the king of fruits, pineapples are loaded with vitamins, antioxidants, and is the only natural plant source of the enzyme bromelain, which has some pretty great digestive and anti-inflammatory benefits. All in all, the pineapple is an amazingly healthy and incredibly tasty fruit. 5 stars. - would eat again, and again, and again...
