A Cook's favorite for use in salad dressings, egg dishes, sauces, and flavoring meat dishes.
Full Description
Cook's Garden Favorite. An essential herb for French cuisine, tarragon adds flavor and depth to sauces, salads, eggs, soups, fish and poultry dishes—and is the sine qua non for béarnaise sauce. Flavors similar to anise, licorice, and fennel, French tarragon lends a beautifully soft texture to the garden with soft, strappy, narrow green leaves. Tarragon gives great balance to vinegar-infused recipes but be sure to chop well as chewing on full leaves can leave a slight numbness in the mouth as a result of naturally occurring compounds (hydroxy-alpha-sanshool).

Happy PlantsI got my plants back in May. Since my area gets extreme heat in the summer I planted in 3 locations; full sun, partial sun, and full shade. They have all been growing really well. The full shade plant was not impressed with its home so it now is living much more happily in a pot on my patio. I got my first harvest this week and the flavor was excellent.

Died within a monthI purchased three of these plants. The plants arrived unhealthy with few green leaves. As other reviewers have mentioned, all three plants died within a month of arrival and planting. Very disappointing. I usually am very pleased with Burpee plants but this French Tarragon appears to be an exception to their good quality and hardiness.

Not the best experienceI ordered French tarragon, a pack of 3. Upon arrival, 2 of them were already dead. The last one survived but does not have much aroma.

Love French tarragonI get French tarragon every year to grow in my herb garden. This is the first summer I have managed to keep it alive all summer. I hope to keep it in the house all winter to use in my cooking.

Healthy Plants, Great FlavorHealthy little plants, carefully packaged arrived at my house in the spring for planting. They matured into lovely, fragrant herbs. Mid-summer I harvested and dried a bunch, and I will get one more harvest this year. I'm in upstate NY, zone 5, so I'm hoping they survive the winter. Plan to cover them with cloches.
