Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis)

Description:

Rosemary is an aromatic, perennial and woody shrub, belonging to the Lamiaceae family, known for its culinary and broad-ranging medicinal uses. Native to the Mediterranean region, this rosemary is an upright variety that can grow up to 3 to 6 feet (0.9 to 1.8m) in height. It features small, needle-shaped leaves that are dark green on top and white or silver-grey on the underside. The leaves are arranged in dense clusters along the stems. Rosemary produces small, blue-purple flowers that bloom in late spring or early summer. The flowers attract bees and other pollinators.

Growing Conditions:

  • Climate: cool-temperate.

  • Position: full sun exposure with at least 6 to 8 hours a day; prefers bright, direct sunlight to ensure proper growth and volatile oil production.

  • Soil: well-draining, sandy or loamy soil; can tolerate a wide range of soil pH, from slightly acidic to slightly alkaline, but prefers a pH range of 6.0 to 7.5. Avoid heavy, clay soil that retains moisture, as it can lead to root rot.

  • Water: low to moderate water needs; prefers slightly dry conditions; drought-tolerant once established.

  • Spacing: space the plants approximately 60 inches (150cm) apart.

  • Propagation: sow seeds in early spring on the soil surface in deep seed flats or pots and tamp securely (light-dependent germinator). Keep cool and moist until germination which may take 3 weeks or more (rosemary is notoriously difficult to grow from seed); alternatively take cuttings from healthy plants in spring or early summer and root them in well-draining soil or water.

  • Harvest: harvest leaves as needed once the plant has reached a height of at least 6 to 8 inches (15 to 20cm). The leaves can be harvested at any time during the growing season. Avoid removing more than one-third of the plant's foliage at a time to ensure continued growth.
