Pineapple, believed to have originated in South America, is a herbaceous perennial that grows up to 5ft tall and has a short, stocky stem with tough, waxy leaves.

200 or more flowers are produced, and once they flower the individual fruits of the flowers join together to create one multiple fruit that is a wide cylindrical shape with thick, rough skin which is dark green when unripe and orange-yellow when ripe.
