Florida Special Pineapple Plant (Ananas comosus 'Florida Special') is a locally adapted tropical fruit plant selected for exceptional performance in Florida's warm, humid climate — producing sweet, full-sized, flavorful pineapple fruit with vigorous growth and outstanding heat tolerance. This bold and architectural bromeliad forms a striking rosette of long, sword-shaped green leaves that make an ornamental specimen in any tropical garden or patio setting, even before the fruit develops. With full sun, excellent drainage, and consistent warmth, Florida Special develops a central stalk that produces one spectacular edible pineapple per growing cycle, followed by offshoots that can be propagated into new plants for ongoing harvests year after year. A Florida-grown selection that thrives in the Southeast and performs beautifully in containers throughout the country. Plants arrive in 2 inch starter pots, well-rooted and ready to establish.
