    Cynara cardunculus

    Cynara cardunculus is a bold, architectural perennial, prized for its large, deeply cut silvery foliage and striking upright habit. Its sculptural form makes it a standout feature in borders and Mediterranean-style planting schemes.

    In summer, tall stems are topped with impressive purple flowerheads resembling artichokes, attracting bees and butterflies. Best grown in full sun with well-drained soil, it adds height, texture, and dramatic presence to the garden.

    • Striking silvery foliage for architectural interest
    • Attractive to bees and butterflies
    • Excellent as a cut flower
    • Ideal for adding height and structure to borders
    • Prefers full sun and well-drained soil
    • Height 200cm - Spread 100cm
