WillC said:It sounds like you found an ornamental Pineapple. If so it is best left in the pot and soil it came in.
Keep it right close to a very sunny window and water it thoroughly as soon as the surface of the soil feels dry.
If you post a photo, we might be able to provide more assistance.

The pots are broken and too small I have no choice.
I'll look elsewhere for the soil answer.
plantmanager said:I've found the same thing, Tarev. No more pineapples for me, but I do love the Cryptanthus.
