Original pineapple in same pot. It was planted in potting soil and a yorkie knocked it off the porch. It lost most of the dirt in that accident and I just set it aside because I figured it was dead now. It had other ideas and grew quite happily. I will soon transplant the thing into some actual dirt. I've given it a touch of random fertilizers when I remember it exists. (edit: it was under a bunch of weeds and elephant ears so it wasn't getting any sun, probably why it's so pale now?)
These are two newer ones. I just stuck them into a pot of potting soil and they've gotten a little random fertilizers, like the original, when I remember about them. As you can see, one got whacked by the weed eater the other day because I forgot they were on the ground behind some grown up weeds. Oops.
