Pineapple Summer

I’ve been busy researching and writing some more serious posts, but today I’m bringing you something a little more light-hearted.

Summer ’17 was declared a Pineapple Summer – not just because pineapple motifs were suddenly everywhere. In my world, it all started with this video.

Pineapple Summer was officially declared over last month, so I thought we’d round up some names associated with the delicious fruit.

The below are all inspired by the names of different cultivars:

Alexandra

Ceylon (Red Ceylon)

Charlotte (Charlotte Rothschild)

Esmeralda

Hilo

James (James Queen)

Josapine

Kona (Kona Sugarloaf)

Lisa (Cayena Lisa)

MacGregor

Marta (Santa Marta)

Maspine

Michael (St. Michael)

Ripley (Ripley Queen)

Victoria

 

A fun bunch of the more familiar names, and the less well-known. Any favourites?
