Has anyone found a good variety of artichoke to grow in South Texas? I tried Green Globe in San Antonio with limited success a few years ago. We now live out east of town. I have seen a variety called Texas Hill mentioned. Any idea where to get plants or seeds? |

I did a search on the Texas Hill myself but could not find anyone that had the plants in stock. We settled on the Green Globe and the plant is doing well but I don't know if it'll make it thru the hot summer. Any special tips you can give me for the Green Globe? |

Not really, we started from seed, they made it throught the summer as I remember and and we got a couple of small chokes. They had partial shade which probably didn't help. they eventually died, not sure why. Sorry I was not more help. |

We 're expecting!! I discovered our first little artichoke yesterday. I certainly was not anticipating one this early but thanks to the rain and "milder" temps we have success. Here's our first pic of our little one... http://www.kodakgallery.com/I.jsp?c=v3w ... &y=-x7yw4m |
