Cultural
information: Rosemary is a very fragrant herb that has
become popular during the Christmas holiday. It is usually found
in 6" or 1 gallon containers trained to grow into a variety
of shapes. Cones, wreaths and topiaries seem to be the most
popular.
"Rosemary" is very difficult to
grow from seed, so we suggest you visit your local Garden Center
and purchase pre-started plants. Plant the new Rosemary plants in any
sunny to partly shady location keeping the soil moist at all
times. During the heat of the summer Rosemary appreciates some mid
day shade.
Growing
"Rosemary" in containers is a plus because the plants
can be moved indoors and kept as a houseplant when the growing season ends.
Uses: Aromatic,
Cosmetic, Craft, Culinary, Medicinal & Ornamental

"Rosemary" from the upper part of the plant any time you

leaves in any tight closing container.
