Insights
True French Tarragon (not to be confused with its Russian counterpart) does not produce viable seed, so is always propagated from cuttings — a mark of its quality and authenticity. Compact and elegant, it grows beautifully in pots or the front of sunny borders.

Care
Grown in peat-free compost and supplied in a biodegradable coir pot, made from waste coconut fibre and natural latex. When planting, remove the plant and reuse or dispose of the pot sustainably — add it to the compost heap, break it up as mulch, pop it in the green waste bin, or leave it out for birds to use as nesting material. Protect from frost and keep dry in winter. Prune lightly after harvest to encourage fresh leafy growth. Ideal for pots near the kitchen door.
