During the pandemic when everything was locked down I tried rooting a pineapple top and now 6 years later I have little pineapple garden.

So, I have a question. Do pineapple plants fruit more than once? I am under the impression that once a pinneaple plant bears fruit, it is done.

Yes they all produce 1 fruit a season.

Per season or just one season? Sorry if I am being dense, but it hurts to kill a plant that has given fruit.

Not sure about that, but pineapples take 2 to 3 years in a tropical climate to fruit.
