What is wrong when the leaves of a nephthytis plant stay curled up like new leaves and do not open?

Leaf curl can be caused by a lack of water or too much heat/ sun. Also, specific to nephthytis leaf curling, are infestations of thrips, a small insect. Infested leaves become curled or distorted, with silver-gray scars or calloused areas where feeding has occurred. Thrips can transmit tomato spotted wilt virus to other plants. check local nurseries, greenhouses, or home improvement stores for pesticides to treat thrips.

Which is NOT a characteristic of a plant's vascular tissue It transports water and food inside the plant or It supports the plant's stems and leaves or It exposes the plant's leaves to the sun or It t?
"it transports water and food inside the plant" is a characteristic as xylem transports water and the phloem transports food in the form of sucrose. "it support the plants stems and leaves" is a characteristic of vascular tissue because the arrangement of the xylem and phloem provide it with strength and therefore support. the last one is then the wrong characteristic.

No, it can not grow in Texas. The above answer is wrong, you can grow pineapple in Texas. You have to plant them in a planter so you can take them inside if it gets cold. If you buy a pineapple at the supermarket make sure it isn't over ripe. When you get it home grab the pineapple by the leaves and the stock and twist of the leaves. You can plant that part and it should grow.
