french tarragon

(Question)

Where can I purchase French tarragon plants?

(Answer)

Thank you for contacting Toronto Master Gardeners.

French Tarragon (Artemisia dracunculus) is an herbaceous perennial, and potted plants have been somewhat difficult to find in the Toronto area, for several years. Their roots systems are very sensitive to both hot, parched temperatures, and chilly wet soil. Many garden centres sell out early in the season. There are hopefully garden centers within your neighbourhood, with helpful websites that will list their plants, or you can contact them directly.

Toronto Master Gardeners is not able to provide a list of preferential garden centres.

Once you have purchased, or grown, French Tarragon, please see our website information on how to care for French Tarragon
