Product description
Ananas Amigo is an indoor plant with a very unique, lone pineapple which situates itself at the peak of the plant. This is a great ornamental feature that goes extremely well with the dark green foliage below, that droops over the pot below it. The pineapple on top will eventually drop off, but that shouldn't put you off the plant as its delightful green colouring is attractive on its own. Whilst you care for the plant, it will care for you by purifying the air around it, removing any harmful pollutants and unwanted toxins. When you care for the Pineapple Plant, you should water it when the top soil is dry to touch, doing so when the plant is placed in a location with bright, indirect light being present.

House Plant Size Guide
House plants come in a wide array of shapes and sizes depending on the variety and maturity of the plant.
6cm/12cm/15cm/19cm/23cm nursery pots are the most common size of pot that they are sold in. This measurement is the diameter at the top of the pot.
12cm potted plants are the most popular providing great value for money and an instant impact. Larger plants that come in pots of 20cm+ are great for making a statement in any room and can represent years of growth to get to that level of maturity and size.

Top Tip
Provide a warm, humid environment for your Ananas plant to replicate its tropical origins. Mist the leaves occasionally to boost humidity, especially during dry seasons or in centrally heated homes. Rotate the pot regularly for even light exposure, and keep it away from draughts or extreme temperature fluctuations. With the right care, this eye-catching plant will thrive and add a tropical flair to your space.
How to Water
Water Ananas plants sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out slightly between waterings. Focus on watering the base and occasionally fill the central rosette with water, as these plants naturally absorb moisture through their leaves. During the growing season, water every one to two weeks, but reduce the frequency in winter when the plant’s growth slows. Ensure the pot drains well, as waterlogged soil can cause root rot.
How to Plant
To plant Ananas, use a container with excellent drainage and fill it with a well-draining, sandy or cactus-specific potting mix. Position the plant so the base of the leaves sits above the soil surface, ensuring the roots are evenly spread. Backfill with soil, firm gently, and water lightly to settle the roots. Place the pot in a warm location with bright, indirect sunlight, as plants in the Ananas genus thrive in tropical-like conditions.
