Pineapple Red

Plant Bio

The Pineapple Red (Ananas bracteatus) is a rare and striking ornamental plant that adds an exotic touch to any home or garden in the UAE. Unlike the common edible pineapple, this variety is prized for its brilliant red crown and vibrant foliage, making it an eye-catching centerpiece in decorative arrangements, balconies, and outdoor landscapes.

Compact in size, the Pineapple Red is perfect for pots, decorative planters, or as part of a tropical garden setup. Its bold colors make it ideal for pairing with other ornamental plants like Bromeliads, Crotons, or Cordylines, creating a lush and colorful display.

Thriving in the UAE climate, the Pineapple Red prefers bright, indirect sunlight when grown indoors, and partial shade to full sun outdoors. It requires well-draining soil and moderate watering, ensuring the soil dries slightly between watering sessions to avoid root rot.

This low-maintenance plant is not only ornamental but also a conversation piece, making it a favorite among plant enthusiasts and collectors. With minimal care, it continues to produce stunning red accents year-round.

Care tips: Place in a bright spot, water moderately, and use a balanced fertilizer during the growing season for best results.
