Artemisia  dracunculus

French Tarragon's name comes from French and Latin origin "little dragon," perhaps from its fiery taste that chefs and cooks around the world love. An essential herb for any culinary garden.  An accenting herb, tarragon is used in mustard, tartar and béarnaise sauces, and tarragon vinegar. A member of the sunflower family, tarragon has a sweet anise taste and should be used sparingly.
