Artichoke update

Friday, April 25th, 2014

As an update to our last post on the artichokes, we harvested the first one today.

On that same plant where the first one popped out, there are now 6 artichokes with new ones coming every few days so far. And several other plants have their first artichoke buds as well.

All in all this is seeming quite successful.

This is the same plant that had its first bud just a couple weeks ago. There are now 6.

First artichoke!

These are in their second year. They were grown from seed last year, put outside in June, 2013, and came back strong after this winter. Today we saw the first actual artichoke. Exciting.
