Default Globe Artichokes

No clue here, but I've just discovered a small artichoke nestling in the
leaves of mine, so I await further instructions. I wonder if I can make
it serve four? This vegetable growing is much more exciting than
flowers!


If it goes like mine, it will soon be 2 or 3. I'm trying 2 big ones
tonight, by the traditional method, with a parsley and chive sauce.

One of mine BTW is coming up bright purple! It seems a seed jumped
packets.


Probably a GM blackcurrant-flavour artichoke. You can serve it candied
for dessert ;-)
