Description
Artemisia dracunculus, commonly known as tarragon, is a beloved herb, recognised for its slender, aromatic leaves and distinctive flavour. A mainstay in French cooking, tarragon lends a subtle anise note to sauces, chicken, fish, eggs, and salad dressings. To maximise its flavour, it's best to harvest the fresh leaves regularly during the growing season.
This hardy perennial herb forms neat, upright clumps, flourishing in garden beds, raised beds, and containers, particularly in sunny, sheltered spots. Once it's settled in, tarragon is a long-lived plant, returning year after year, making it a valuable addition to any herb garden.
