ROBUST AND FLAVOURFUL, this is a less pungent cousin of the classic French Tarragon.
Category: Herbs
(Perennial)
Russian Tarragon does not have as strong a flavour as French , but the plant is much hardier and more suited to our climate. Producing a milder aniseed flavour it goes well with eggs, fish, cheese and poultry. Can also be used to make tarragon oil and salad dressing.
Planting
Plant in beds or containers, in well-drained soil or compost, in sun or partial shade.
Care
Water well until established, they prefer slightly drier conditions.
Height & Spread:
60 – 120cm × 40 – 60cm.
Harvesting
Snip off leaves as needed, preferably in the morning when the flavours are more pronounced. Use scissors or fingertips and be careful not to harvest more than a third of the plant at a time to promote continuous growth.
