Description: Mexican Tarragon, also known as Spanish Tarragon or Mexican Mint Marigold, is a perennial herb valued for its aromatic, anise-flavored leaves that resemble those of French tarragon. It produces small, golden yellow flowers in late summer to fall, which are both decorative and edible. This herb is often used as a tarragon substitute in culinary dishes and is also noted for its medicinal properties.
Planting Tips:
- Plant in well-drained soil.
- Space plants about 12-18 inches apart.
- Water regularly to establish, then only as needed, as Mexican Tarragon is somewhat drought-tolerant.
- Prune regularly to encourage bushy growth and prevent legginess.
- It can be grown from seeds, cuttings, or divisions.
Ideal Season for Planting in Texas: Spring or Fall
Nativity to Texas: No, but it is well-adapted to the climate and grows well in many parts of the state.
