Aleyna:

Very pretty!

The center spathe will develop into fruit. It will turn yellow and taste like pineapple.

Yes, I see now that you mention it...those ants are super smart, and such a pain.

I have lost several plants in the past from ants. They actually cultivate scale in the heart of palms and other plants to harvest the sweet sticky secretion from the scales.
