Pineapple is an auspicious fruit in Asian countries. I tried to grow one. This is how:
You have to pluck away the crown and remove some leaves to reveal the roots. I think you have to remove about 5 to 6 layers of leaves and then expose the roots. I cut the remaining leaves and keep them short. I put the crown into a recycled bottle and put in water to cover the roots. After a few days, you can see roots growing. You may want to change the water regularly.
After a few weeks, you will get many roots and then you can plant it.

I keep the pineapple on my window sill and hope that it can bear fruit. Well, let's see how long it takes to bear a pineapple... Huat ah!!!
