Actually the Western Cape has a mediteranian climate,. " It is generally accepted that the mediterranean climate occurs in southern and southwestern Australia, central Chile, coastal California, the Western Cape of South Africa".

So tomatoes etc are easy peasy to grow and in abundance. Artichokes I'm not so sure of. As far as I know we import them from Israel. Never seen home grown ones.
