Variants
A great trailing shrub for over walls and rockeries, in herb gardens and mixed in with veggies and perennials. Great for growing in large containers or used as a groundcover. A useful plant for especially dry, hot or windy conditions as they are pretty tough. It is also tolerant of clay soils. Leaves are used in cooking and adding to roasts, especially roast lamb to add flavouring. Rosemary also attracts plenty of different pollinators to the garden.
- Great in a container, rockery, as a border, and in a cottage garden.
- Attract beneficial insects.
Feed annually in spring with a balanced fertiliser such as blood and bone at a handful per square metre in spring as new growth begins. Rosemary is often used in cooking so is constantly being picked, however, if the plants are not being picked or are in need of tidying up or trimming, this can be done whenever is required. Very old, woody, leggy growth can be pruned back to encourage new growth to be produced. They can be pruned pretty hard, but this type of pruning should only be done in warmer months so the new exposed growth doesn't get frosted or damaged.
