Derived from Cynara cardunculus var. scolymus, it is sought after for its vigor, its ability to produce several beautiful heads from the first year, and its great ornamental as well as nutritional value. In the garden, it creates an almost architectural presence, elegantly occupying the space while offering a tasty harvest of tender heads with a buttery texture after cooking. Its flowering, when a few heads are allowed to open, intensely attracts pollinators thanks to its nectar and pollen-rich inflorescences, making it a valuable ally for biodiversity. Its sustained growth and deep root system also contribute to soil structuring, reinforcing its ecological value in a living vegetable garden. This variety appreciates a sunny location, fertile soil, and consistent watering, especially during the vegetative development phase where its biomass becomes impressive. The patient gardener then sees superb green artichokes nuanced with purplish hues forming, promising an abundant and refined harvest. To cultivate 'Tavor' is to bring into the garden a spectacular, productive, and noble perennial vegetable, at the crossroads of gastronomy, ornamentation, and ecological balance.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Les jardins de l'écoumène","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53117213933728,"sku":"ECOU-SEMENCES","price":4.49,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0655\/3878\/5440\/files\/Artichaut_Tavor_bio.png?v=1768570395"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0655\/3878\/5440\/collections\/Semences_d_artichauts.png?v=1770393886","url":"https:\/\/www.pepiniere.ca\/en\/collections\/semences-dartichauts.oembed","provider":"Pépinière.ca","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
