| Hi, I am in Roswell, Holcomb Bridge area, not too far from you. I grew artichokes last year from seed, don't remember the type, got the seeds at big box store on a whim. Beautiful plants, very easy, had 2 little artichokes in one of the 3 plants I tried. If you can grow from seed ( need fluorescent lights inside for about 6 weeks), it is much cheaper than buying plants. good luck, Yara |

| The guy around the corner has had a perennial artichoke in his yard for like 10 years. I have no idea what kind it is, and neither does he! |
