  1. Hello friends. Half an hour ago I made (see the clock) my preferite seasoned
    vinegar with a plant of Tarragon (estragòn in french language, estragone in
    Italian language) )grown in my garden. Look here, the photo was made this
    morning in my kitchen:

    It is a wonderful and tasted vinegar to season salads! French people use the
    plant's leaves to season their dishes of meat or salads!
    You only have to take a little branch of Tarragon (Artemisia dracunculus)
    and put in a bottle of white vinegar! This is all! very simple and very
    tasty!
    I don't know if you have in Us this plant.
    Cheers

    Tarragon grows in some parts of the U.S. but here in Southern Texas it is
    too hot for it.
    We can buy it in the produce markets though.

    In the U.S., it grows well in the cooler regions of California, the Pacific
    Northwest (Washington, Oregon) and also well in areas like Pennsylvania and
    New York. The tarragon I buy (in west Tennessee, which is in the
    mid-southern U.S.) comes from California.

    Ohhh! Thank you!
    Please, I want to ask you: is fresh or dry the Tarragon that you buy ?
    The Tennesee is an hot Region! If you say that Tarragon can't grow in hot
    countries, how do you do?
    Thank you for the answer

    Wow! My tarragon never got anywhere near that large! I haven't started my
    herb garden at this house yet. Maybe if I plant the tarragon in pure
    manure, I'll get plants that big! You're going to have some marvelous
    salad vinegar!

    Tarragon grows nicely in Minnesota, which is straight north of Texas, but
    almost all the way to Canada. 🙂

    Even when I grow my own tarragon, I prefer to use it dried. I've tried to
    like fresh tarragon, but I just don't.

    It does fine here in one of the hotter regions of California (Northern
    California, Central Valley -- yes, I know that's confusing!) I'm not
    especially fond of tarragon, so I don't grow it, but I have done, and
    my neighbor has a thriving herb garden, one whole section devoted to
    tarragon.

    French tarragon is growing just fine in western North Carolina. Don't
    know if it will winter over.

    Good reminder to make tarragon vinegar.

  13. Cool pictures. I didn't know tarragon grows so big. I'm used to thinking of
    herbs as tiny little things that grow in a pot on the windowsill.

    Hmm, come to think of it I don't know what most spices look like. Perhaps
    one day I will see waving fields of fennel in Alberta and the mighty cumin
    trees of New Zealand. :-)

    I buy fresh when I can find it but I also have dried Tarragon. Yes, it gets
    hot in Tennessee. I'm not sure I understand your other question.

  15. Very nice! I have been trying to grow french tarragon but so far no
    luck. It is very hard to find seeds but hope to find some to get
    started next Spring. I love tarragon. BTW, all I've ever seen is
    russian tarragon (tasteless) and french tarragon. Is that all there is?

    I live in the Pacific Northwest, WA, right on the coast and am having a
    difficult time even finding any to grow. The russian tarragon grows
    fine but is worthless. The french tarragon I've been unable to find.

    I grew French tarragon once upon a time. I dried some in '92 or '93, and
    still have some of it. It's still more fragrant and flavorful than
    Penzey's, and it spent 7 years in an attic. It's in a baby food jar, so
    it's well-sealed.
