Pineapples don't grow on trees. They grow as a big ground-hugging spiky plant like a bromeliad. They look like a big tuft of leaves with a pineapple in the middle sprouting another tuft of leaves, sort of like a giant orangey thistle. However, they aren't thistles, like artichokes. I think they actually are a kind of edible bromeliad.
