How cold does it get there? I tried to buy Tarragon at the nursery
today and was out of luck. They told me they don't sell it this time
of year and the person I talked to said hers doesn't like it in San
Francisco. She says her French Tarragon is 3 years old, grows just a
few inches during the growing season and then dies back. Do you find
that tarragon is deciduous? She says it dies back to the ground every
year.
