Herb Tagetes Dropshot
The sweet, aniseed flavour of this unusual annual herb will appeal to liquorice-lovers! A member of the marigold family, Tagetes ‘Dropshot’ has insignificant flowers but wonderful feathery foliage with a sweet anise flavour. ‘Dropshot’ adds an extra flavour dimension to dishes and is gaining popularity with top chefs as a versatile ingredient for teas, desserts, drinks, main dishes and salads. It can also be treated as a substitute for French tarragon, but is much easier to grow. It forms low, cushion-like mounds that are perfect for pots or border edges.
Sowing
Sow on the surface of lightly firmed, moist seed compost in pots or trays and cover with a fine sprinkling of compost or vermiculite. Place in a propagator or in a warm place or windowsill and keep at a temperature between 21-25°C. Do not exclude light as this helps germination which usually takes 7-21 days. When large enough to handle, pot on into individual pots and plant out after the last frost at 30cm spacings or in pots.
