This was my second year growing artichokes. Or, really, growing a single artichoke plant, since my second plant didn’t survive last year’s dry spell. It takes a second season for the plant to produce flower buds, which are the things one cuts off and eats. And I did indeed get a large, lovely, delicious globe this spring, with two more buds showing promise.
