A great substitute for French tarragon, Mexican tarragon stands up to the heat of summer. Adds flavor and depth to sauces, salads, eggs, soups, fish and poultry dishes. Narrow, tapering, aromatic, green leaves impart a prismatic blend of hints of licorice, anise and vanilla. Upright, bushy 24" plants offer up their tantalizing leaves beginning in early spring; come late summer, clusters of tiny, pale golden flowers appear. One of the finest herbs, tarragon gives any dish a delectable French accent.
