Elite Gold Pineapple – Compact and Commercially Reliable
The Elite Gold pineapple is a popular commercial variety known for its sweet, golden-yellow flesh and high productivity. It’s a compact plant, making it well-suited for small gardens or containers.
Standout Features:
• Container Suitability: Yes, Elite Gold can be grown in containers, but choose a larger pot as it matures.
• Leaf Texture: Sharp, spiny leaves, so handle with care when planting or harvesting.
• Plant Width: Typically grows 3-4 feet wide, so allow for ample spacing if planting in the ground.
• Fruit Acidity: Moderately acidic with a sweet, tangy flavor that is balanced, making it great for fresh eating or juicing.
• Special Feature: Its golden-yellow flesh is very sweet, and the plant’s compact growth makes it ideal for those with limited space. It’s widely used in commercial production for its consistent quality and size.
Care Tips: Elite Gold thrives in full sun and well-drained soil. Ensure that it’s well-spaced or in a large enough container to allow for the plant’s natural spread.
SHIPPING
Carriers and Services
We ship all orders via UPS, offering Standard, Expedited, and Overnight services. Shipping costs and delivery times depend on your location and the selected service.
Winter Shipping Advisory
Cold Weather Alert: Tropical trees are highly sensitive to cold temperatures. During colder months, our greenhouses maintain warm, optimal conditions for growth, which makes plants more vulnerable to cold damage during shipping.
Recommendations: If temperatures along the shipping route are below 40°F, we recommend holding your order until it’s safe to ship. We will notify you if a delay is necessary.
No Freeze Warranty: We do not guarantee plants shipped during freezing conditions. Shipping in cold weather is at the buyer’s discretion and risk.
Shipping Schedule
Local (In-State) Shipments: Orders ship Monday through Wednesday to ensure delivery before the weekend. Most locations within the state receive deliveries in 1 to 2 days.
Out-of-State Shipments: Orders ship primarily on Monday and Tuesday to avoid weekend delays.
