Review & Description

The flowerhead is eaten as a vegetable. It is thistle like in appearance Can be pickled, baked, fried, boiled or stuffed. Young artichokes can be eaten raw. Hardy perennial. Sweet, mild buds stay closed longer on the plant, for a more leisurely harvest.
Nearly 3 times the yield of older varieties!
Produces nearly 3 times more Artichokes in a single season than older varieties! The sweet, mild-flavored flower buds are round and thornless, for easier harvesting. And they stay closed longer on the plant, so you don't have to pick the entire crop at once! Harvest them at 4 1/2 inches in diameter for best flavor. Delicious and so productive in the garden!

Space the plants about 6 feet apart. Divide every 3 to 4 years to maintain vigorous yields. Fertilize once annually with a nitrogen-rich mixture.
