Russian tarragon (L. artemisia dracunculoides) often sets seed, and is usually propagated from seed as a consequence. French tarragon, on the other hand, _very_ rarely sets seed; hence, it is usually propagated by division. So: beware of "tarragon seed" - it is almost inevitably of the inferior form!
