You honestly have the best guide to gardening from start to finish and with visuals! New gardeners like myself need to SEE how to do things and you do that so well.
I love the video Angela. Good way to get rid of all bugs n stuff off the plants is to trim nettle, put it in a bucket or a barrel soaked in water for 24-48 hours, and then fill the spray bottle and cover the plans. If rains, repeat the process. Happy days :)
Im a first time viewer and just watched How to Plant and Grow Artichokes - this is the most useful gardening video I've seen. Many thanks - all the facts and just the facts Janet
OMG! I'm so glad I found a local gal to help me understand how to garden in The Valley!!!! I live in the Biltmore area and have flood irrigation and am a newbie gardener! I just can't figure out what to plant, so it's nice to find someone local to follow.
Glad it was helpful! This planting guide may help: growinginthegarden.bigcartel.com/product/perpetual-planting-and-harvest-calendar-for-the-low-desert-of-arizona
Awesome video! I’m growing artichoke for the first time and this video was very informative. I now know what to expect as I see the plant grow. Thank You!
I live in Flagstaff,AZ at 7,000 feet elevation, and I am just now sprouting seeds for several container grown plants. I bought the Green Globe seeds from Home Depot, and it sounds like I should have gotten Imperial Star instead. Thanks for the great video. 🙂
Thank you, for this info packed video. Having spent a portion of the morning watching vids on artichokes, yours has been the most informative. I'm growing Green Globe artichokes for the first time. They were started from seed on March 8th and are under grow lights as we're in zone 4 in Minnesota. The seed leaves are large and the true leaves are just beginning to emerge and open. It is 48 degrees, hoping we get into the 50's today. Maybe I'll set them outside for a bit, but not too long.
Many thanks for that great information! Living in the Southern Hemisphere (South Africa) our growing times are different to yours but l do know that well cared for plants will reward one generously. Artichokes are so versatile and absolutely scummy to prepare and eat and only just having bought my seedlings, l have a lot to look forward to. I am planting them in well composted veggie boxes to ensure that l prevent the moisture from been drawn away to drier areas of ground. Many thanks for your great information. 🤗🤗🤗
Angela, you are now my go to garden guru. So happy I found you a week ago. I live in Zone 8a, but summers here are like zone 9 - hot and dry. Because of you, I’m attempting my first artichoke plant. I have several trees that suck the life out of my soil. My garden competes fiercely for nutrients and water. Knowing that, is it worth growing artichokes in an extra large container, about 20 gallon size?
Hi, I like your gardening style. You have got beautiful garden. I don't have land. i am doing pot gardening with homemade organic fertilizer. You can use banana peels water and eggshells powder
@@jalilaelqorchi Not very well. 2 died and one recently came back from the dead with new growth. I’m crossing my fingers that the other 2 also pop back up out of the ground 🤞🤞
From Los Angeles: sowed 12 seeds, 5 germinated but 2 had to be thinned. 2 have been planted out but the 3rd is progressing extremely slowly so it’s still indoors in my seedling area under lights. The 2 outside are just starting to establish. Based on all the research and other videos I’ve seen, the statement about artichokes not being picky about soil type is false. Artichokes will have a lower rate of bud production if the soil is too alkaline. Artichokes prefer a slightly acidic, well-draining soil. Additionally, they are a plant native to the Mediterranean region. That being said, they are slightly drought tolerant as the plant has adapted to that climate by sending its roots much deeper than most other garden vegetables. Good luck to everyone growing!
I remember watching this last year and was curious how the Roselle experiment went. Now that Roselle season is almost over, what do you think of how they did together? Was it successful? We'd love to know your thoughts.
Do you get 2 harvest seasons per year or just one in Mesa? I’m in chandler and wondering if I try for a fall harvest or not. I consistently get a spring harvest 🥰
Since it's so warm this fall in Phoenix, should I hold off on planting my artichokes? I bought transplants now, but I see you say to plant them in November. Thank you!
I thought I was buying a bag of artihokes for cooking, its a bag of roots! I'm in zone 3B. I feel like I should plant them now? The Mennonite store I bought them from usually puts seasonal roots out at the right time. I'm going to call them.
As a vegan... artichokes are one of my staple veggies. I've found the best way to cook them is in an instant pot. Hi pressue for 18-25 mins (depending on the size of the artichoke) with slow release of pressure. We like to dip them in melted plant butter. Enjoy!
Very nice and informative video!! I liked and subscribed so I can watch more of your videos later on. Moving from northern IL to Phoenix this fall.Will they grow in a raised bed garden?
Thank you for the video. Where are you planting in the low desert? I am in Sky Valley California. Do they grow here? I planted and had a couple of bulbs.......Is like the plant needs more nourishment.
I’ve seen at garden centre in milk crates and it’s lined in a dark thick green garbage bags look so healthy so I tried not as good but coming along nicely
I'm in an 8b zone in Southern California at 4500ft. We get snow in winter and triple digit summers, and a lot of wind. Do you recommend a specific variety for these somewhat extreme conditions? Thank you!!
Angela we are in zone 8a and planted them in the ground last year. They have come back well but seem to not be growing as fast as they should. Can I send you a picture?
Hi, I am in North Texas and it gets very hot in the summer. I didn't research growing artichokes before I started seeds in the winter. Now I have large seedlings, can I put them in big pots now, then plant in the ground in November?
@@annsmith2520 you might want to put them where they get morning but not afternoon sun. I am south of you in deep east Texas and growing them under small trees works well here. Full sun was a quick way for them to die.
I have an off topic question. I live in north Tucson where is is a bit cooler than Tucson proper. I was wondering if I could grow lilacs here? Thank you for your wonderful videos.
There are a few low chill varieties available, you should be able to to find them easily. I believe they came from Descanso Gardens in California, for starters.
this is so helpful. i ordered a few plants online, and they are just being sent to me and now I realize it's a little late to plant them. any tips for helping them survive? i'm in southeastern AZ, and it's hot during the day but we still haven't reached our last frost date (high desert.) thanks!!!
Nice thank you! I am moving from the Foggy beach to the heat. It'll be at 3300 elevation.. 90 degrees in the summer. then some snow in the middle of winter. Which Artichoke plant should I purchase? The one I have is 8 years old and done.but is just now flowering gorgeous purple stamens. I am moving this coming monday and will not be able to lets it completely drying on the plant. Any thoughts? Thank you!
Thank you for all of your valuable information, I love your channel! I have a question for you. We live in Gilbert and planted a grape plant years ago. I believe it is a Thompson Grape and it has grown beautifully for years, but it never bares fruit. What could possibly be the reason? Thank you and take care!
@@GrowingInTheGarden yes it gets a lot of sun and we do prune it each year. It was planted straight into the dirt in our backyard. This area used to be farmland. We have never fertilized it or amended the soil though. Could that be the problem? It is also on a drip system and looks beautiful and healthy, except it never fruits.
We are moving to Gilbert and would like to ask you for a tree recommendation. We need to remove an existing tree that has very invasive roots. It’s starting to attack our pipes. We are Looking for a colorful tree that gives some shade. Do you have a recommendation, that you could share? Thank you.
Good question, here in Arizona I would water at least once a week. I usually grow something else in the same area while it’s dormant so it gets water that way.
The property that I have moved on to is overrun with artichokes, they never die back. Do you know how to get rid of them? We have tried cutting them down but they always come back (dangerous) I have tried the steam shot to kill the roots. Still came back. My goats eat them back but they still grow back. I was hoping it you knew how to keep them alive you might know how to kill them too.

Diatomaceous earth works wonders against bugs. When you wash it off, it stays in the soil and keeps the bugs out of the soil too.
Many thanks for that great information!

Loving our artichokes. This is our first year harvesting and it's 10x better than the tough store artichokes.
So true!

What an amazing video! So much information! Thank you!
thanks this video saved my artichoke in my front lawn
Thank you. How would you manage growing artichokes in a tropical environment (no winter or tens below 74 degrees)?
Hi Angela. Glad i came across your channel.

Do you get 2 harvest seasons per year or just one in Mesa? I’m in chandler and wondering if I try for a fall harvest or not. I consistently get a spring harvest 🥰
Just one.
Very informative
What NPK do you use and how often?
Since it's so warm this fall in Phoenix, should I hold off on planting my artichokes? I bought transplants now, but I see you say to plant them in November. Thank you!
You could plant them. Transplants will be happier in the ground.
@@GrowingInTheGarden thanks so much! I appreciate your RUclips content.
I have one plant with about a few large bubs and greater than 10 smaller buds all over. Should I cut off the small ones?
That's a lot of bulbs. That isn't necessary. Usually the side buds are smaller.
I thought I was buying a bag of artihokes for cooking, its a bag of roots! I'm in zone 3B. I feel like I should plant them now? The Mennonite store I bought them from usually puts seasonal roots out at the right time. I'm going to call them.

As a vegan... artichokes are one of my staple veggies. I've found the best way to cook them is in an instant pot. Hi pressue for 18-25 mins (depending on the size of the artichoke) with slow release of pressure. We like to dip them in melted plant butter. Enjoy!
Thanks for the tip, that sounds so good!
@@GrowingInTheGarden I’ve come to the realization that if it can’t be made in an instant pot, I probably don’t need it.
Thank you for a very informative video. What about sun? How much of our Arizona sun do artichokes need?
They grow well in full sun, but like a little afternoon shade.
Very nice and informative video!! I liked and subscribed so I can watch more of your videos later on. Moving from northern IL to Phoenix this fall.Will they grow in a raised bed garden?

Do these do well in grow bags? I almost love having them flower more than eating them. :)
Good question. Use a large grow bag and don't let them dry out.
I’ve seen at garden centre in milk crates and it’s lined in a dark thick green garbage bags look so healthy so I tried not as good but coming along nicely
Great video presentation! All helpful information with no filler!
Thanks so much!
Brava! Excellent video and tips
Thanks so much.
How often do you water when they are dormant? Does it hurt them to dry out quite a bit?
They get watered about once a week because other crops are growing there as well. I wouldn't let them dry out completely.
Thank you ❤
I'm in an 8b zone in Southern California at 4500ft. We get snow in winter and triple digit summers, and a lot of wind. Do you recommend a specific variety for these somewhat extreme conditions? Thank you!!
I'm not sure. I would check with local growers to see if they have a variety that has been successful for them.
How did the Roselle work out?
Great! It's a good combination .
they will also look good in tropical gardens.
True!
I wonder if they can plant in tropical climate?
Can you do a video about lemon balm?❤️
Good idea!
Angela we are in zone 8a and planted them in the ground last year. They have come back well but seem to not be growing as fast as they should. Can I send you a picture?
Be sure they get plenty of water and maybe try fertilizing to see if that helps.

Do the need support? Stake?
No - I haven't ever needed to stake them.

It can take a while, several weeks. Be patient and let them completely dry on the plant if possible.

I'm not sure. I would check with a local grower.
I didn't get any flowering in it's first year. Is that normal? I have a good growing season too.
Usually you do get them the first year, but not always. Hopefully you will next year. It may depend on the variety or your weather.
Do we water the artichoke while dormant? And if so, how much?
Good question, here in Arizona I would water at least once a week. I usually grow something else in the same area while it’s dormant so it gets water that way.
Can I eat the flowers of artichoke? Thank you very much
You can, but they would be very difficult to eat.
So one has to choose the location well... but what is the best location for artichokes?
Plenty of sunlight and room to spread.
Interesting thanks for the video :)
Thanks for watching!
@@GrowingInTheGarden pleasure :)
I’m in Phx as well, can you grow artichokes in large pots? You know our soil here is horrible! Lol!
Artichokes can be grown in large containers, yes.
Growing In The Garden great thank you
How many grow off one plant?
Depends on the variety and how old they are. You harvest more each year. Typically 4-6 the first year and more on subsequent years.
i like your smiling face
The property that I have moved on to is overrun with artichokes, they never die back. Do you know how to get rid of them? We have tried cutting them down but they always come back (dangerous) I have tried the steam shot to kill the roots. Still came back. My goats eat them back but they still grow back. I was hoping it you knew how to keep them alive you might know how to kill them too.
While they are actively growing have you tried digging out the roots? That could work.
Are they artichokes or cardoons?
Do they really take 7 months
👍
My first 3 tries all got to about 6 inches then went brown 😥
Hmmm.... Focus on planting at the right time, good soil and watering. Sorry to hear that.
One artichoke here in Hawaii is 6 dollars 😢
Looks good could you provide some words on your video, I am deaf
Thanks for the heads up. I updated it so the captions will be visible now.
@@GrowingInTheGarden thank you very much ❤️
The MI Gardener disagrees with you about water. He says with their deep roots, he doesn't need to water his plants in Michigan. ???
Our climate here in the low desert of Arizona is a bit different than Michigan and we need to provide extra water.
