Pineapple (Ananas comosus) is the common name for an edible tropical plant and also its fruit. This herbaceous perennial plant plant grows to (1– m) tall with 30 or more trough-shaped and pointed leaves 30–100 cm long, surrounding a thick stem. The pineapple is an example of a multiple fruit: multiple, spirally-arranged flowers along the axis each produce a fleshy fruit that becomes pressed against the fruits of adjacent flowers, forming what appears to be a single fleshy fruit. Pineapple is commonly used in desserts and other types of fruit dishes, or on its own. Pineapples are the only bromeliad fruit in widespread cultivation. It is one of the most commercially important plants which carry out CAM photosynthesis. In Thailand, there are 27 pineapple species. Pattawia or Smooth Cayenne is the most popular among packers used for processing canned pineapple and also popular for fresh consumption as well.
