Artichoke.
This is the artichoke I harvested today. I wish I knew more about crops that ripen out of season. In my experience as a youngster on the 38th parallel in the middle of the Mediterranean, artichoke tubers (I don't know the technical term--parts of the previous season's roots) were planted at the end of summer, and harvested in winter. The artichoke I planted a few years ago (bought at a nursery) keeps producing fruit in the middle of summer. I reduce the size of the plant each year, and stop watering it at the end of the summer. I'd like to know more about this.
