My First Home Grown Artichoke

Guess what popped up in the garden?


Which makes sense because we bought an artichoke plant, dug a hole, set up a drip line and watched it grow.


The big surprise was the awesome footprint of this plant.

It takes up a good portion of our vegetable box -- leaves sprawl forth in every direction.

Which seems like quite a bit of excitement for ONE ARTICHOKE.

On the plus side it was deee-licious!
