Artichoke - Green Globe

Cynara scolymus

An incredible cultural heritage from 1863. A beautiful delicacy known for its fantastic taste and grown today in many parts of the world. The small artichokes are magical when pan-fried with butter and served with a little aioli. The larger artichokes are fantastic when baked in the oven with feta cheese and a little parsley, but also boiled and enjoyed with just a little butter as a side dish. This is a big favorite among our staff at Florea and a recurring variety in our gardens.

This friendly artichoke is just as nice to eat as it is to decorate bouquets or beds with. The variety produces magnificent purple flowers that smell wonderful, which is why it is often seen in many gardens and plantings. Green Globe is also incredibly popular with all of our pollinators, especially butterflies. A must-have in the garden, simply put!
