The pineapple is a herbaceous perennial with long sword-like leaves arranged in a spiral around a central stem and a terminal inflorescence. Leaves may or may not bear marginal spines depending upon variety and cultural practices. Adult plants may be 3 to 6 feet (0.9-1.8 m) high and wide.
The veins of a leaf can be arranged in three different ways. In pinnate leaves the veins all branch off the main vein which runs the length of the leaf. In palmate leaves the veins radiate outward from the base of the leaf like fingers spreading out from the palm of a hand. In parallel-veined leaves, the veins all run parallel from the base of the leaf to the tip. Most leaves have a petiole or a central stalk by which they are attached to the stem. Sessile leaves have no central stalk and are attached directly to the stem. Learn more about Botany.
