Pineapples In Hawaii?

Question

Hi, read the article regarding pineapples. It states “unless you live in Hawaii”, nobody else grows them. Can I suggest an update. If you draw a band around the earth in that zone, and again in the southern hemisphere, you’ll note all the countries that grow pineapples. Here in Queensland Australia, were surrounded by pineapple farms, and they even grow in our back yard. Cheers

Most of the articles on this site are tailored to the US where the company based out of. That is the only place that it will grow in our country. If you provide proper care, then it will grow well as long as the conditions are correct. This articles will provide other places that it will grow. There are many articles on pineapples, so be sure to find one that applies to your area, or general care. Otherwise the recommendations are usually for certain regions of the US. This articles will offer information on other areas where it grows outside of the US:
