as a house plant,or a fruit bearing plant?

DesertRose · Answer

pineapple is tropical fruit and Louisiana is semi tropical at best, I would venture to say no unless you have a sun room or greenhouse! You could give it a try1

Cindy · Answer

Louisiana is right at the boarder of being very tropical. It just might work for you. I love pineapple but I cannot grow them in Illinois. Good luck. I hope this works out for you.

Give it a try, I am growing 2 here in CA and have been successful before. What have you got to lose?

Cindy Hagemann · Answer

Yes, especially if you grow it in a pot.

Gary · Answer

you certainly can! I have 3 fruiting plants right now. it takes time but they are fun and great for families. we live in new Iberia and our plants stay outside except for cold winters when small.this past winter i erected a small greenhouse using plastic sheeting because the plants got to about 5' wide! i'm changing over to hard clear sheeting so we can continue growing pineapples and other vegetables. Good Luck!
