I grow Smooth Cayenne and Sugarloaf but I have no slips or suckers available at the moment. I usually pot them and give as gifts to friends. I'm sure someone here can help you though.

I have pineapples, but I do not know the variety--I just grew it from a top--I have 2 that are blooming now and I think 2 more will be blooming within a couple weeks.

Excalibur Rare Fruit Trees in Lake Worth has sugar loaf pineapples, some with fruit some with out. They might also have Natal Queen They were not that expensive. If you are a "plantaholic" be ware, they have a lot of hard to find items. I got an Abiu from them and it has produced very well this year.

Yes. Now I am spreading into pineapples. Actually, I have as many tropical fruits you can think of --- It's my relaxation hobby.

Welcome to the organization NEURON from another Floridian!!! I used to grow many Pineapples, but now I have only 10. Mangos, Bananas, and Native Plants are my relaxation plants. Scuba Diving, and as they tell me in my Dive Club, Extreme Scuba Diving is my main relaxation activity. Best wishes, Good weather and Good Growing!!!

NEURON a warm Florida welcome to the org. I'm looking forward to your posts. I hope to have a few unusual pineapples in my collection by 2010that I will be able to share, but currently I am committed to expanding the mango population.

Welcome Neuron. I think you'll like it here. Great screen name BTW (I'm an old neurosurgical nurse). Look forward to seeing pics of your garden.

I have LOTS of mango trees; the unusual ones and almost all year long... since this is FL! Tell me if there is anything in particular you are looking for in Mangoes -- maybe I can help.
