Frequently Asked Questions
Find helpful answers about growing tarragon, identifying its varieties, and using its aromatic leaves.
Can you grow French Tarragon from seeds?
True French Tarragon (Artemisia dracunculus var. sativa) is generally sterile and does not reliably produce viable seeds. It is usually propagated through root division or cuttings. Tarragon seeds commonly sold for planting are often Russian Tarragon, so check the botanical variety before purchasing.
What is the difference between French and Russian Tarragon?
French Tarragon has a stronger, sweeter anise-like flavor and is widely preferred for cooking. Russian Tarragon is generally hardier, can be grown from seeds, and has a milder, sometimes more bitter flavor. Both varieties have narrow green leaves and upright growth.
When and how should you harvest fresh Tarragon leaves?
Harvest established tarragon plants during active growth by cutting healthy, tender stems or picking individual leaves. Morning is a suitable time after the dew has dried. Regular light harvesting can encourage branching and provide fresh aromatic foliage for sauces, dressings, and other recipes.
