Default globe artichoke

Can these be moved? I have one which flowered last year and had about 3
large "stalks". I've cut these down so now just have a clump of leaves,
about a foot cubed. Can I just dig it up and move it? Thanks in advance,

Just about indestructible. But don't leave it too late.

They can also be very easily split. One that size will easily give 3 or 4
new plants but they will take a year or so to fill out again. Otherwise,
Rusty is right on both counts.
