Artemisia dracunculoides
Russian Tarragon is milder but much hardier and easier to grow than its French counterpart. Pale silver-gray, narrow, spiky leaves are less aromatic than French varieties. It has a slight licorice flavor and earthy balsamic notes which are a perfect complement to tomato dishes, poultry, fish or meat dishes. Use to make Tarragon flavored vinegar. Fresh leaves add zest to salads and are my secret ingredient for Béarnaise sauce. Attracts butterflies and is deer resistant.
