    Customer photo review of Artichoke Seeds - Green Globe

    I've grown artichokes for about ten years now, and most other growers tell you that you have to stratify the seeds in the refrigerator first, a long process. But these seeds from Eden Brothers sprouted quickly inside in a pot; I let them stay inside for about eight weeks, and transplanted them outside two weeks ago (I have to cage young plants because of all the wildlife that comes through my yard), and they're doing very well! Can't wait to taste the final products. Thanks, Eden Brothers!

    These grew so quickly they took me by surprise. My bad was not ready & I gave to a neighbor who had space for them. I’ll be starting more after I’ve got my bed ready & dog-proofed.

    zone 4 is tough for artichokes. Great leaves so for but nothing else. Not really expecting much. Just fun to see what happens.
