After moving across the country, I knew I wanted to add more greenery to my next apartment. It took months of decorating and unpacking boxes, but I finally got to a place where was I ready to become a proud plant mom. While some people scroll through clothes and shoes online, I'm mulling over different types of shrubs, flowers [1], and vines to add to my 700-square-foot space. Enter: Home Depot's Pineapple Plant [2] ($30) from Pure Beauty Farms. Since I won't be traveling to a tropical location anytime soon, I imagined a pineapple plant would metaphorically bring the beach to me — even if the tiny fruit on top is inedible.
Home Depot will deliver the ornamental plant straight to your door [3], so you can continue social distancing comfortably. Potential pineapple plant owners should prepare to leave the pot in sunlight for at least six hours daily and to water it once a week. Shop the tropical green for yourself ahead.
