Good, that's a globe artichoke. Probably it was too small to produce this year. It will probably die back over winter, shoot in the spring, and give you globes next year. A bit of fertilizer would help if you want some big ones. And keep an eye out for aphids, they can so completely infest a globle if you don't keep them under control that you wouldn't want to eat it.
