Often we are told that artichokes won't grow in our valley. They grow on the coast and are planted by the acre. I planted this artichoke last January and it has a nice reward for me! If I leave the globe, it will open up and the center will be a beautiful purple flower. I have not done anything special for it to make it produce; it was planted just like I would plant a regular flower or small shrub.
