During the Covid lockdown I like many people got bored. I started rooting cuttings and seed from the kitchen with mixed results. Of the many pineapple plants now growing in my garden this is the only one that is setting fruit, kind of cool.

PINEAPPLE & THE MATHEMATICAL FIBONACCI NUMBERS
Pineapple scales or fruitlets or eyes are patterned into spirals.
Since these scales/fruitlets/eyes are approximately hexagonal in shape, three (3) distinct sets of spirals can be seen on the surface of a mature Pineapple.
One set of 5 parallel spirals ascends at a shallow angle to the right,
A second set of 8 parallel spirals ascends more steeply to the left,
and
A third set of 13 parallel spirals ascends very steeply to the right.
The numbers 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34 etc. are called Fibonacci Numbers where a Fibonacci number is the sum total of the previous 2 Fibonacci Numbers.
=====================================================
Product Look-Up (PLU) codes, printed on a little sticker on the fruit, for Pineapples are:
5743 = Half
5155 = Small
4029 = Medium
4430 = Large
====================================================
This Pineapple was grown from the top of a ripe Pineapple sold in stores, as a part of an experiment.
This was not fed any fertilizer throughout its lifecycle and hence it was sweet and juicy but smaller than its parents.

The Dunmore Pineapple is a folly in Dunmore Park, near Airth in Stirlingshire, Scotland. It was ranked "as the most bizarre building in Scotland".
The intricately carved stone pineapple, which is situated between the two bothies, forms an elaborate cupola atop an octagonal pavilion, with sash windows topped with Gothic ogee arches on seven sides and a door, topped with an ogee transom, on the eighth.
The pineapple is around 14 metres (46 ft) high and constitutes a stunning example of the stonemason's craft, being a remarkably accurate depiction of a pineapple. Each of the curving stone leaves is separately drained to prevent frost damage, and the "stiff serrated edges of the lowest and topmost leaves and the plum berry-like fruits are all cunningly graded so that water cannot accumulate anywhere, ensuring that frozen trapped water cannot damage the delicate stonework."

Visited a pineapple plantation in the Azores today.They grow them under glass here.On holidays so fewer comments than usual..HWW.
A spectacular plant, with spikes of purple-edged, pale green star-shaped flowers on purple-spotted stems in July and August, topped with a pineapple-like tuft above a rosette of wide, fleshy leaves.
This distinctive, summer-flowering bulb looks stunning planted in clumps in a large, well-drained container or in a sunny, exotic-style garden.
Since it's not fully hardy in frost-prone areas, it's best over-wintered indoors in a cool greenhouse; however. it seems perfectly happy planted out in my garden, with protection from the north and east!
The low wall behind these plants makes a raised bed for my collection of tree peonies, while the tub on the right contains a selection of Cyclamen, which flower at different times of the year, so it's always a point of interest!
A friendly face.

I love pineapple Upside Down Cake ...and had some leftover pineapple slices in the fridge ...so I sautéed them in a pan with a little butter and brown sugar ...added the leftover pineapple juice ... and a pinch of cornstarch and simmered it till golden brown and the sauce thickened ....Put the slices in a dish... topped it with scoop of Ice Cream ...some whipped cream and a cherry ...and Voila !...Mmm mmm good !
Sketching a pineapple before going to bed. 😄 Tracing the patterns was like a meditation. So much focus and calmness.

Almost as soon as I saw this weeks Challenge I decided to use some of the Eucomis that I have in the garden, the question then was which variety to use.I have two varieties and the second one I will post in the first comment box.
Eucomis (Pineapple Lily) are not hardy so they are overwintered in the greenhouse and brought outside for their summer holiday! For something that looks so exotic they are remarkably easy to look after

ps i'm not recommending any of these cookery adventures. they suit my personal taste. photographing to encourage myself to eat more healthily ...
i've created a group www.flickr.com/groups/cooking_is_my_hobby/ to gather ideas and encourage myself to continue with healthy eating by learning from others if you're interested in cooking, sometimes or a lot, or enjoy the cooking of others, you're always welcome ...
These beautiful tiny blooms are so colorful and detailed, yet hard to find.. Had to post another view.
The colors of this medium-sized Pineapple are astounding. Only Peter Max and Mother Nature could have thought them up! Roses, yellows, oranges, pinks, curvy edges, prickers, stickers. More color and texture than the mind can usually conceive!

About 30 years ago when we were first landscaping our property, I wanted a privacy hedge. I then saw an article in the Los Angeles Times recommending the pineapple guava plant as one of the most rewarding plants that we could grown in our area. Attractive shrubbery, beautiful blossoms great tasting fruit in the fall, and fairly fast growing. It's also reasonable drought tolerant. It's now an 8 foot hedge with wonderful fruit that we eat in the fall. It is neither in the pineapple or guava family
I lit this with a YN560-III in an 8.6 inch Lastolite softbox hand held at camera left. The flash was in manual mode, and was triggered by a Yongnuo RF-603N.
Other plants, flowers, fruit or thingys that I've photographed using strobes can be seen in my Strobe Lit Plant album. In the description for that set, I list resources that I've used to learn how to light with off camera flash. www.flickr.com/photos/9422.
