Pinuelas plant

Pinuelas plants are a relative of the pineapple, but they are not edible because their fruit is sour.  The fruit that grows in the central portion of the plant, similar to a pineapple, has the segmented exterior similar to a pineapple, but it is not in the neat, compact shape of a pineapple.  

This week we are showing photos of the Spanish colonial architecture of Grenada, Nicaragua on our Viva la Voyage travel photo site.
