Description
Description
The Green Globe Artichoke is a perennial vegetable plant valued for its large, edible green flower buds that develop into purple thistle-like flowers if allowed to bloom. This variety is known for its vigorous growth and high yield potential. It produces large buds that can reach up to 4-6 inches in diameter, with a tender, flavorful interior. The plant features deeply lobed, silvery-green leaves and typically grows to a height of 4-6 feet with a spread of 4-5 feet. It is adapted to withstand drought and heat conditions, making it suitable for warmer climates. Green Globe Artichoke seeds are heirloom, non-GMO, and easy to grow, making them ideal for home gardeners seeking a productive perennial vegetable crop.
- Grows from seed with a germination period of approximately 2-3 weeks under optimal conditions
- Produces large, 4-6 inch diameter buds that are harvestable before flowering
- Plants mature in about 2 years, after which they reliably produce annual harvests
- Requires full sun and well-drained soil for optimal growth
- Perennial growth habit allows for crop production over multiple years without replanting
The Green Globe Artichoke is suitable for use in vegetable gardens, edible landscaping, and culinary applications where the large, tender buds are desired. It is particularly ideal for home gardeners seeking a long-term, low-maintenance crop that can provide fresh artichokes seasonally. This variety's resilience to drought and heat makes it well-suited for Gardening in areas with limited water availability or warmer climates. For a different color option, growers can consider the Violet Star Artichoke, which offers a unique purple hue.
Seeds should be started indoors 8-10 weeks before the last frost date or sown directly into the garden once soil temperatures reach at least 65°F. Proper watering, full sun exposure, and well-drained soil are recommended for successful cultivation. Green Globe Artichoke plants are hardy but benefit from a thick mulch layer to suppress weeds and conserve moisture. While generally low-maintenance, periodic fertilization and division of mature crowns can enhance productivity. This variety is compatible with a range of garden conditions and offers a reliable source of home-grown artichokes for culinary use.

Safe Seed Pledge
OUR PLEDGE TO YOU
Agriculture and seeds provide the basis upon which our lives depend. We must protect this foundation as a safe and genetically stable source for future generations.
For the benefit of all farmers, gardeners and consumers who want an alternative. We pledge to you that we do not knowingly buy or sell genetically engineered seeds or plants. The mechanical transfer of genetic material outside of natural reproductive methods and between genera, families or kingdoms, poses great biological risks as well as economic, political, and cultural threats.
We wish to support agricultural progress that leads to healthier soils, genetically diverse agricultural ecosystems and ultimately healthy people and communities.
We do not buy - OR - grow any seed from large corporations that make Genetically Engineered seeds. We don't touch that stuff and we never will.
The seeds we offer aren't like varieties you'd typically find at a garden center.
Every variety we offer is 100% OP (open-pollinated). Open-pollination means that you can safely save the seed after harvest and preserve a collection of heirloom seed for many generations to come.
To make it perfectly clear ... Our seeds do not contain any exogenously inserted embryogenesis deactivator genes caused by human intervention.
