Artichokes can grow up to five feet tall and six feet wide |
Terminal bud of the Artichoke Plant |
If you look closely under the photo of the full artichoke plant, you will see I have planted some lettuces. My hope is that in the filtered shade of this plant, I will continue to harvest lettuces without the sun causing them to bolt.

Oh, I love your artichoke plant! What
a beauty it is! How long has it been growing? The pictures of the artichokes are beautiful and must taste so yummy! I hope I win some on
North Coast Gardening Giveaway!
I saw that contest. Good luck. I hope you win!
I planted these in the fall. They get so big so if you win, plant someplace in your garden that can handle the girth!
I have loved these plants ever since I planted my first one.
