Also known as French Artichoke, this native of southern Europe was cultivated by the Greeks and Romans. Globe Artichokes are not reliably hardy in Virginia, as Jefferson acknowledged to his Parisian friend Madame de Tessé in 1805: "we can have neither figs nor artichokes without protection from the winter."Arrives in a 3.5" pot.
