  • The Green Globe Artichoke Plant is a beautiful and useful perennial vegetable. Its enormous, edible flower buds and bold architectural leaves make it a favourite. Its silver-green foliage and tremendous growth make it a lovely feature plant in the vegetable garden or ornamental border. It also gives you great homegrown food.

  • The soft artichoke hearts have a rich, nutty taste and are a real gourmet treat. You can steam, roast, or dip them. Green Globe artichokes will come back year after year after they are established. They will grow harvests in the summer and give the garden a lot of structure throughout the year.

    Watering Keep the soil consistently moist while the crop is establishing and growing, especially during flowering, fruiting or rapid leafy growth. Water deeply at the base rather than little and often, allowing excess water to drain away. Plants in containers, grow bags or greenhouses may need daily checks during warm weather.

    Best Growing Conditions Grow in sun or partial shade in fertile loam, enriched with organic matter where appropriate. Choose an open position with good airflow and enough space for the crop to mature without excessive competition. Protect tender crops from late frost and cold winds, and use greenhouse or sheltered growing conditions where the variety requires extra warmth.

    Top tip

    Keep growth moving steadily with consistent watering and regular picking or harvesting once produce reaches a usable size. It works particularly well in a borders setting; give it enough space and light to develop naturally rather than crowding it.
