About this plant
Ananas comosus 'Corona' is an eye-catching ornamental variety of the pineapple plant, prized more for its appearance than for fruit production. This compact cultivar features arching, sword-like leaves edged with creamy white variegation, forming a rosette that centres around a small, decorative pineapple. While the fruit is not typically edible, it adds a wonderfully quirky and tropical focal point. A slow grower that brings a sense of the exotic, it thrives in warm, bright spots and makes a fantastic conversation starter.
