Artichoke in Tennessee??


Well, I have posted pictures of my artichokes I planted last summer, then placed in the dirt basement to go dormant. I pulled them out this spring and to my delight, they burst forth with lots of growth. Here is an updated pic of my artichoke grown in Tennessee! I am so proud. :-)

Thanks Tasteful Garden for this healthy plant!
And speaking of Tennessee, did you know that our state wildflower is the passionflower? I was lucky enough to purchase this one recently and absolutely love the fragrant blooms, and harvesting the fruit will just have to be a bonus!

Happy upcoming fall gardening!
