how long does it take to grow a pineapple?
Please be patient with these lil guys!
Growing a pineapple from a crown (the leafy top of a pineapple) typically takes about 1.5 to 2 years.
After planting the crown in soil and providing proper care, it usually takes around 12 to 18 months for the plant to mature and produce a flower.
Once the flower blooms, it can take an additional 6 months or so for the fruit to fully develop and ripen.
