The artichoke (Cynara cardunculus (L.) subsp. scolymus) is a herbaceous plant from the Compositae family. It is a robust plant with large, blue-green rosette leaves. From the stem, about two palms long, grow one or two flower heads, the artichokes, covered with hard bracts. The flowers are blue-purple and tubular. The tender, edible part is found inside the heads, but in herbal medicine, the youngest leaves are used, as they contain the bitter active ingredients that have health benefits.
