    Idk why 3 different people are messing with you or just too ignorant to google a pineapple flower, but yes, those are the flowers lmao. They’re aggregate fruits, and all the little clustered segments on a pineapple are individual single flowers that develop into one big “pineapple” together.

    Yes, the flowers on a pineapple come out of the little puckers that are all over the skin. It’s like a big bloom cluster that forms one aggregate fruit.

    Also, pineapples are a type of bromilliad. They only bloom once from each terminal growth. After flowering, they start to make pups at the base, which will take over as the new growth points for the plant.

    Lucky. I grew a pineapple plant for 4 years and never got a baby.
