It is widespread in the wild across much of Eurasia and North America, and is cultivated for culinary and medicinal purposes.
Tarragon grows to 120–150 cm (47–59 in) tall, with slender branched stems. The leaves are lanceolate, 2–8 cm (0.79–3.15 in) long and 2–10 mm broad, glossy green, with an entire margin. The flowers are produced in small capitulate 2–4 mm diameter, each capitulum containing up to 40 yellow or greenish-yellow florets..
