TARRAGON – Premium Russian
(2000 seeds)
$3.95
A cuisine must-have
Russian Tarragon isn’t quite as strong-flavoured as French Tarragon, but it’s much easier to grow. This herb is best used fresh from the garden as a flavouring for fish dishes, chicken and potato bakes. It’s an essential ingredient in gourmet delicacies like Hollandaise sauce and Béarnaise sauce, and both fresh leaves and seeds can be used. For those who hope to add a distinctive difference to their cookery, this herb cannot be ignored.

How to Sow
Since tarragon seeds should be covered very lightly with soil, guard against drying out during germination. Once the seedlings are up, reduce watering to protect against root rot.
How to Harvest
Cut fresh sprigs from your garden and use right away. If you want to keep them for a while, place the base of stems in water like cut flowers. To collect seeds, watch the development of the flowers and pick the heads when the seeds are well-developed, leaving them to dry out of direct sun before separating the seeds.
