So I have a nice 6ft plumeria in a clay pot in front of my house. About 4 years ago I went and planted a pineapple top in the same pot. It was supposed to be temporary while the pineapple rooted but fast forward 4 years and I forgot about it. I now have a nice size pineapple growing but the roots of both plants are grown together. Over the years the plumeria has shed many leaves down into the pot, I recently cleaned a bunch of dried rotted leaves away from the base of the plant and the pineapple plant. It is my understanding that plumeria plants are poisonous especially the leaves. Given its location do you think the pineapple would be safe to eat?

My guess is yes.

If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the precipitate.

I would say yes, safe to eat. Plumeria poisonous? first I heard that. off to google it.

There's scarcely any way the pineapple and plumeria would interact.  Eat the pineapple.

Unless you're ingesting the sap or flowers from the plumeria, I'd say there is nothing to be concerned with.  I have a friend with a fairly large (in-ground) plumeria, and they have grown pineapples under it without any issues for a number of years.

Ok thanks for the feedback. Looks like the pineapple will be eaten, just needs some time to grow.
