The king of herbs – fresh, aromatic, and unmistakably French.
Bring a touch of French culinary magic to your garden with our premium French Tarragon plants. Renowned for its refined anise and liquorice flavour, this elegant perennial is a favourite among chefs and home cooks alike – perfect for infusing oils, lifting chicken and fish dishes, and making classic béarnaise sauce sing.
Unlike many herbs, French Tarragon can’t be grown from seed – it must be propagated from cuttings or divisions. That’s why we supply strong, healthy young plants to give you a head start. With the right care, your plants will thrive for 3–4 years, providing a generous supply of aromatic leaves from late spring through early autumn.
