🌞 How to Grow
-
Start Indoors 10–12 weeks before last frost.
-
Surface Sow: Press seeds gently into moist compost — they need light to germinate.
-
Warmth & Light: Maintain 21–24°C (70–75°F) with good sunlight or grow light.
-
Transplant Carefully: Once large enough, move into larger pots or well-drained garden soil.
Note: Rosemary is slow to germinate. Cuttings from an established plant can be faster.
💧 Care Tips
-
Watering: Let soil dry slightly between waterings. Rosemary dislikes soggy roots.
-
Feeding: Needs little feeding — compost in spring is enough.
-
Pruning: Trim after flowering to shape and encourage growth.
-
Containers: Great in pots — ensure excellent drainage and terracotta if possible.
🌼 Growing Sustainably
-
Pollinator Magnet: Rosemary’s pale blue flowers feed bees in early spring.
-
Drought Tolerant: Once established, it thrives with minimal water.
-
Low Input: Requires little attention or resources — ideal for sustainable gardens.
✂️ Harvesting
-
Cut sprigs as needed once the plant is established.
-
Harvest in the morning for highest essential oil content.
-
Avoid cutting more than 1/3 of the plant at a time.
Tip: Regular light harvesting keeps the plant compact and productive.
❄️ Overwintering
-
Rosemary is hardy in most of the UK, but dislikes wet winter soil.
-
Mulch base lightly in-ground or bring pots to a sheltered location.
-
In cold areas, overwinter indoors near a bright window.
