Product Description
Perennial Artichokes don't come 100% true from seed, you will get slight variation in shape and colour, but from our selection of seeds you'll get plenty of quick-cropping plants for your garden.
This standard, mid season, highly-productive globe artichoke that is hardier than the rest. Add a lot of drainage and this should even grow well in the north.
Mine remain evergreen through the winter, and crop twice, in June and then in the Autumn. Cut them down to the ground in summer.
- Perennial
| Sowing: | Need a well-drained, rich soil and full sun. Sow under cover in early March - July. Plant out when roots fill a 9cm pot. They can also be sown direct in July |
| Final Planting Distance: | 60cm |
| Harvesting: | May produce small artichokes in first summer but remove these ot eat at golf ball size. Don't allow them to grow to full size as they will hamper the development of the plant. The harvest in the following years will be most prolific in July. Pick when scales are tightly closed to be at their best for eating or allow to flower if you want to use them in arrangements. |
