Growing French tarragon

View the French tarragon page

29 Mar 14 Jacquie (South Africa - Dry summer sub-tropical climate)
Found some French Tarragon (Artemesia dracunculus) at the Stellenbosch market this morning at the plant staff. First time I've seen it there. Confusingly the botanical name for Russian tarragon is very similar (Artemesia Dracunculoides Pursch) and no good for cooking.
