Bianco Avorio Cardoon Plant, Perennial Vegetable, Full-Part Sun

Bianco Avorio Cardoon Plants

Cardoons are in the artichoke family; the stems rather than the flowers are cooked with. Blanch two to six weeks before harvest, wrap stems with newspaper or cardboard.  A few light touches of frost are known to make them taste even better.  Also nice for impressive cut flowers.

2.5" Pots are available starting March 1.

3.25" Pots are available starting April 1.

Plants will be delivered in the pot sizes listed/selected.  The mature plants shown in the pictures are significantly larger than the 2.5"-3.5" pots in which we ship plants.  Some plants will flower in these pots, but most do not.  Plants flower when they naturally flower for the period they naturally flower.  Most flowers do not flower all year.

Plants are guaranteed to be healthy upon delivery.  If you have a question or problem with the plant upon delivery, please message us and include a picture so we can address the issue.  Please be respectful and understand that addressing issues and questions is part of our support for our customers.   Things happen during shipments that no one can control, but we insure all plants for these issues.  After a healthy plant is delivered, we are happy to answer questions, but we cannot be held responsible for the care a plant receives.
