Storage Guidelines

Commercial storage guidance for globe artichoke buds. Storage life depends on initial quality, maturity, cultivar and handling; this is not a household shelf-life guarantee.

Artichokes must be handled carefully, because bruised or scratched bracts turn brown or black and let decay organisms in. Source: USDA Agriculture Handbook 66 (rev. 2016).
