We had five babies in this brood. I have cleaned out the nest box already, hoping that they will choose to have a second brood in one of the 4 we offer them. The House sparrows have taken over one, but I keep cleaning it out and they keep putting in new nesting materials. But enough about birdies, back to gardening.
Does anyone have any luck with French tarragon? Chervil? I’m trying to up my herb game this year. Advice is welcomed.
Of the three Tarragons (French, Russian & Mexican) I like the flavor of the French, the best.
I’ve always bought plants because I understand it’s very hard to start from seed. The new plants are propagated from cuttings of older plants. I usually have great luck with cuttings of Rosemary (my favorite herb!) and Momswithhope showed me a nifty way to keep Basil going in water in a window at the end of our growing season.
Chervil is something I’ve never tried. I grow Rosemary in pots (so I can later bring them inside) and Basil and Dill in the Kitchen Garden.
Pinging a few ‘ herb experts’ for you.
And is it pronounced ‘Erb’ or ‘Herb?’ I can’t stand how Martha Stewart always calls them ‘HERB’ s! ;)
