So you did it! You let one flower. It is beautiful! I'm definitely going to try to grow artichokes again next year. I would have one happy Italian if I was successful!
ReplyDeleteThat is so pretty! I never knew they bloomed like that. It's funny, it looks like the flower on a weed I had last Spring. I think I blogged about it, or maybe I was going to, ha. I'll have to look and see. This is very cool though, thanks for sharing (and giving up one of your artichokes!).
ReplyDeleteI had no idea. How beautiful
ReplyDeleteGorgeous!
ReplyDeleteAmazing and lovely!
ReplyDeleteOh my, that is so pretty!
ReplyDeleteThat's really cool. I always thought the veggie was the bloom, haha.
