Was wondering where I would be able to find the artichoke tubers in the Toowoomba area of Queensland?We are about 35 kms NW of Toowoomba and I do know they grow well in our black soil. I love them and have heard they are great for diabetes which I have.

Have you tried looking for them at your local Woolworths/Coles? That's where I found the tubers I grew last year. Good luck!

Hi Helen - Happy to sell you some tubers, how many would you like? They should grow really well in the Toowoomba area (I lived there for years myself) as the soil and climate is very similar to where I live here in Victoria. If you're interested please e-mail me.
