  • Hello.

    So Hello, Ive been gardening on and off for 20 years or so inspired by my Father and Grandfather who were avid delvers in the soil, I dont have rolling acres but the 24X60 garden is fairly full and keeps me occupied but not enslaved, I have mostly flowers but there is room for the annual tomato growing binge and a few salads and herbs (nothing like fresh herbs).
    Working as a chef I sometimes get to grow herbs and the like at someone else's expense, they benefit and there are usualy a few spare plants! (product testing ) anyhoo more later.
    Eat well, live well, drink moderately and be happy (hic!)

            I thought French Tarragon was the business?

              welllll its a toss up between dracunculus and dracunculoides, the Russian is hardy down here and more tolerant of the vicissitudes of British weather!! (I promise I haven't had a drink, yet), the french can be very fussy in my experience as for flavour admittedly the french is the dogs, but the rusky is not as bad as it has been labeled.
