You planted pineapple in MI or in, ché ti lo chiami, Greenacres?

LOL...definitely Merritt Island. I joked about bringing our citrus trees with us, but they would have to be hauled indoors for several months a year with no fruit production. Pineapple would absolutely be an exercise in futility.

Guess we coulda planted peach trees but never got around to that. At least we live close to the apple growing areas!

In Fooey it was a big thing to put toothpicks in avocado seeds and suspend them to root over water in a jar on the windowsill. I never had luck getting them to prosper, but people who had sunny decks or yards could get them into a pot with soil, put them out in good weather and they would grow up to three or four feet. Lots of dry leaves, tho. Must have been the petroleum in the air.
