Globe Artichoke ‘Violetta’ – Potted plant

The purple flower buds of ‘Violetta’ are considered to be the best eating form of artichoke, while the arching silver leaves create a striking garden statement. This dual purpose plant is the perfect addition to the permaculture garden. Produces up to 8 main buds as well as dozens of baby ‘chokes throughout the season. Harvest 2-3 buds per plant in the first year and 16-32 the next year. Can be cut back hard after harvest.
