Cardoon Plants
What is a Cardoon Plant
The cardoon, Cynara cardunculus, also called the artichoke thistle, is a thistle in the sunflower family. It is a naturally occurring species that also has many cultivated forms, including the globe artichoke.
I have around 12 plants for sale ready to be planted. They look fantastic along a fenceline, they grow from 1 metre to two metres high and produce a gorgeous purple thistle like flower that looks a bit like an artichoke. The stalks are edible and can been cooked in stews, fritters, you name it. Lots of recipes online.
$5 per potted plant ready to plant out or put in a large pot.
Poll: Is it rude to talk on the phone on a bus?
Buses can be a relaxing way to get home if you have a seat and enough space. However, it can be off-putting when someone is taking a phone call next to you.

Hawke's Bay Show 2025
Something for you to consider for next year. There needs to be a lot more entries in the show as it was quite disappointing to see how few there were this year. Townies can enter these competitions, it's not just for country folk. It costs $5 for one entry, and you get a free ticket to the Show (worth $16) and a free carpark, as well as the chance of winning a prize. www.hbap.co.nz...
