Shipping charge of $3.50 (to US addresses via Paypal only) includes tracking; shipped securely in a bubble mailer to protect them from damage in transit. I have found that sometimes postal processing methods grind even tiny seeds into fragments when sent letter rate, (so it's better safe than sorry).

The lucky winner of this auction will receive 6 Pineapple seeds.
The seeds can take as long as 6 months to germinate but some people report that they see sprouting after about a month.
The best methods seem to be in a small amount of water or on a paper towel in a plastic bag.
For best results make sure plants have about 4 leaves before trying to put in soil.
When ready to transfer seeds to pot:
Fill 3 inch pots with a good quality compost such as John Innes 'Seed and Cutting'. Carefully remove the seedlings from the bag and planting one in each pot place them on top of the compost.
Gently cover the seed with some more compost but in such away that the green shoots are left exposed above it.
Water, then place the pots in a propagator or seal them insider a larger clear polythene bag to maintain humidity. Return the pots to their warm bright position.
Water the pots once a week so that the compost is moist but not waterlogged. After another 3 weeks or so they should be ready for potting on into 6 inch pots.
