pineapple
In the Philippine fairy tale the pineapple appears as the "fruit with the 1000 eyes" .
This number is too high, if a plant has only a maximum of 200 single flowers.
It is told, the more distinctive the eye
formation, the more palatable the fruit.
The juicy, pleasant smelling flesh is
yellow- reddish. Its middle is hard and
usually not eatable. The fruit is
crowned by a tuft of non-flowering
high-sheets and can be used for
propagation.
