Stachys Affinis, or Chinese Artichoke or Crosne, is one of the easiest perennial vegetables to grow in a temperate garden. A member of the mint family: it will spread wantonly!

But since it is a delicious, nutritious plant, itâs easy enough to weed it and get a nice meal or two for your efforts. Crosnes also have an interesting history and are considered a delicacy in parts of Europe.
