Artichokes!


Tis the time of year to be planning and planting a few things. I have grown globe artichokes in the past. They are not a sure thing to grow here. I have lost plants from the winter weather.  I am thinking about getting 2 or 3 plants soon. I know that they can handle all the spring freezes. The summer weather is a bit too warm sometimes. The freshly cut and cooked produce is very good.

My best friend has surprisingly good luck growing artichokes here in the high desert. She sometimes lets one or two "bloom" just because the flowers are so stunning!
