One of my artichokes seems to not like the spot I put it but the other one is doing good. I'm going to add some more later. The main issue was their flower buds were too small to really use this year. I'm hoping they get bigger next year now that my one artichoke is more established.

I found some semi-cold hardy lemon varieties but they are borderline here. I need to make some nice micro-climates first. But I'm excited to try out kumquats--they seem to be a citrus that would handle the winters here fine without even needing a micro-climate :)
