Heirloom Vegetable

35+ Seeds per Pack!

Green buds with a slight bit of purple. Best harvested when 5-9 cm (2.5-4 inches) in diameter. Plants reach 1.5m (4.5') high. Best grown in containers or greenhouses to allow plants to survive the winter in Canada. The plants can also be dug up when dormant and relocated to an indoor location for the winter. Even though an artichoke plant can give an harvest on the first year, it is actually the second and third year where these produce the best.

100 Days to Harvest!

20 seeds/gram Start seed indoors in a soil-less mix 8-12 weeks before the last frost date in your area. Sow the seed 6mm (1/4") deep and germinate at 21-26 C (70-80 F). When seedlings are 2.5-5 cm (1-2") high transplant to individual 10 cm (4") pots and grow on at 15-21 C. Harden off and transplant to the garden after the threat of frost has passed. Artichoke does best in full sun with a deep, organic, fertile soil. 

Space plants 60-90 cm (24-36") apart in the row with rows 1.75 m (6') apart. Keep plants evenly watered and mulch the soil to help preserve soil moisture and keep the soil from becoming too warm in summer - if the soil does become too warm, it can trigger a summer dormant period. Start with a thin layer of mulch and build it up to 10 cm (4") thick as the plants grow.

Who are we?

Canada's - Heirloom - Non-GMO - Heritage vegetable garden seeds supplier.  Support your secluded seed production across Canada.

What are Heirloom Seeds:

In the past, heirloom seeds were typically handed down to a son or daughter of a farmer who was getting married.  This was considered a wedding gift to help provide for the newly formed family.  Now these heirloom seed varieties are sought after because of their diversity and their widespread growing regions that has helped to keep them isolated from Genetically Engineered Varieties.   The most common reason for seeking out heirloom seeds is to find varieties that are resistant to various molds and crop diseases depending on the region in which you are trying to grow.
