About This

• Green Globe artichoke (Cynara scolymus) is a perennial thistle-like plant native to the Mediterranean, grown for its large, edible flower buds that form a tender, flavorful heart when cooked.
• It reaches 3-5 feet tall with silvery-green, deeply lobed leaves and produces globe-shaped buds, typically harvested in spring or fall before they bloom into vibrant purple flowers.
• The plant thrives in full sun and rich, well-drained soil, requiring moderate water and a mild climate, though it can be grown as an annual in colder regions with proper care.
• Rich in antioxidants and fiber, Green Globe artichokes are prized in cuisine—steamed, grilled, or stuffed—while the leaves and stems are sometimes used in herbal teas for their digestive benefits.
• Quality: All Artichoke seeds packaged by Seed Needs are intended for the current and the following growing seasons. All seeds are stored in a temperature controlled facility that is free of significant amounts of moisture.
• Quantity: Seed Needs offers generous quantities. You can share with friends and family, or you can save the extra seeds until the following season, if properly stored.
