Best test - does rubbing
the leaves give any indication of tarragon scent on your fingers?
IME, at this time of year, you may not find any flavour/argon. I think
they need more sun.
This made me wonder so I went out and tested some of ours in pots. It
definitely smells tarragon-y if rubbed hard enough. But it isn't actually
releasing much scent into the air, I agree.
Thanks to all for your responses. The plant that has resprouted *looks* like
tarragon, but didn't scent the air that much, or taste much of anything, so
I wasn't sure - it's the first year I have managed to keep tarragon over
winter, so its a bit of a learning curve. Hopefully some sunshine and more
growth, and it will be ready to eat!
Thanks, Sarah
