I am growing J.Artichokes and they are 2 metres tall and still not flowering .They grow taller than 1.5 metres for sure I usually pickle them and they are delicious. I havent noticed any flatulance,may be the pickling process helps.

Hi Julie yes Im in brisbane and a first time grower mine were planted at different times and locations. Ones I planted on the east side started flowering before xmas and are still going strong and now nearly 2 metres high. The later planted ones are also now budding up.What sort of yields do you get and how do you pickle them.
