Dole Pineapple Plantation

Thursday, 8th September 2005 by James

On the Hawaiian island of Oahu is the Dole Pineapple Plantation where the former largest-in-the-world maze is to be found. The maze is designed to resemble a pineapple (although it is upside down to our view) and is made of 11,400 colourful Hawaii plants, including pineapples.

    the largest pineapple plantation in the world is also owned by Dole, and is located in southern Philippines. I know that for a fact because my dad used to work for the company.

    What is the name of the beautiful trees that look like Christmas trees–V shaped with needles? What is the name of the tree as you go to the train whose trunk looks painted–green and burt orange vertical “striped”
