Queen Pinepapple
About
The Queen pineapple originates from South America. It was first brought to South Africa in 1655 and was first grown in KwaZulu-Natal in 1860.
Pineapples were a vital source of Vitamin C on the sailing ships of previous centuries, which helped prevent the sailors from getting scurvy. Three slices of fresh pineapple contain 86 mg of Vitamin C - 143%% of the adult Recommended Dietary Allowance.
The Queen pineapple is a tropical plant. They are grown by planting the tops of other pineapples, and take 18 months to reach full maturation, growing best in temperatures of between 15oC and 30 oC.
