What is going on with my artichokes?!?  They are covered in ants and covered in 💩.  Are these plants beyond saving?

This is an aphid.  Where there are aphids, there are ants everywhere.  The plant needs to be treated for aphids.

I watch the space, the people.  I listen to nature.  I remember beautiful moments.  Foto. I create comfort in my beloved home.  I cook delicious food.  Happy 🤍

Thank you @laru! Very strange that aphids and ants work symbiotically.  I appreciate the heads up

The secret is that the product of aphids' vital activity is sugar, and ants need it to survive. Aphids are a simple source of sugar for them.
