Tarragon 'Russian' (Artemisia dracunculoides) is a hardy perennial herb known for its robust flavor and vigorous growth. Unlike its French counterpart, Russian tarragon is larger, reaching heights of 2 to 3 feet with a spread of up to 2 feet. Its dark green, lance-shaped leaves release a strong, aromatic scent when crushed. This variety thrives in USDA hardiness zones 3–9, making it suitable for a wide range of climates. It prefers full sun and well-drained soil, and once established, it is drought-tolerant and low-maintenance, ideal for both garden beds and container planting.
Russian tarragon is highly versatile in culinary applications, lending its distinctive anise-like flavor to soups, sauces, and salad dressings. It is also excellent for pickling and infusing oils or vinegars. Beyond the kitchen, its aromatic leaves can be used for natural pest deterrence in companion planting, while its dense foliage adds texture to herb gardens. Due to its hardy nature and long-lasting flavor, Tarragon 'Russian' is a valuable addition for chefs and gardeners alike who want a resilient, flavorful herb year after year.
