This is a picture of an artichoke flower. I grew several in Calif. mostly for the flowers. But I usually ate 1 or 2 of the larger artichokes. The artichoke that you eat is actually the bud of the flower. They do not like cold. But I did grow one in Bakersfield, which can get down in the teens some winters. I had it in a protected area so it did well.
