Learn One Thing A Day

Today I learnt that pineapple is a compound fruit! It is indeed composed of many diamond-shaped fruitlets fused together! Each of these fruitlets comes from a small purple flower that blooms only one day! Could you imagine that?! (wonderful image from insidenanabreadshead.com ) By the way, do you remember that pineapple grow quite close to the ground ?

Did you know that you don't need a ladder to harvest pineapples? Why? They grow pretty much on the ground! That's why!   (image from wikipedia )
