Lake Valley Heirloom Russian Tarragon Seeds

Vigorous ornamental plants that add the final touch to your herb garden. Thrives in well-drained soil and is hardy at least to zone 5. Tarragon’s linear to lance-shaped leaves grow on plants that can reach 5′ tall. Greenish-white flower clusters appear in June or July.

Sowing Information:

  • Light: Full sun
  • When to Start Inside: RECOMMENDED. 6 to 8 weeks before your average last frost date. Ideal soil temperature for germination is 70°–80°F.
  • When to Sow Outside: Select a sunny site with moderately rich soil. Where temperatures dip below 0°F, mulch well before the ground freezes. Tarragon does best in areas where it does have a period of winter dormancy.
  • Seed Depth: 1/4 inch
  • Seed Spacing: Plant 1 inch apart
  • Thinning: When 1 inch tall, thin to 1 every 12 inches
  • Days to Emerge: 7-14 days
  • Days to Mature: 90 days

Growing Notes:

  • Harvesting: Harvest should occur in late July. Tarragon leaves, like basil, bruise easily. Handle with care during the harvest and drying process.
  • Attributes: Russian Tarragon produces hardy plants which make a great addition to any herbaceous border. Established plants may be pruned to fit the confines of your herbal garden.
