Cardoon - Cynara cardunculus


Type: Perennial

Approximate height: 2m

Approximate spread: 1.2m

Flowering time: Mid to late

Site and soil type: Prefers well drained soil in full sun with some shelter from wind.

Uses: Culinary and medicinal

Care: In very cold winters cover the crown with straw.

Very impressive architectural plant with large purple thistle type flowers that are very popular with pollinating insects.


A perfect plant for the back of a large border but give it plenty of room.


Peat-free, pesticide-free, plastic-free.

All plants are sent to you in an eco-friendly cardboard POSIpot or fibre pot, (made from wood pulp), together with a wooden ID label and care instructions. In both cases these can be planted straight into the ground in the pot which will biodegrade.
