Rosemary Herb Seeds

Rosemary – Woody Herb with Needle-Like Aromatic Leaves

Rosemary (Lamiaceae family), native to Europe & Africa, is a perennial evergreen shrub with blue flowers. Known for its sweet, resinous flavor, rosemary leaves are pungent and slightly bitter, used fresh or dried to season lamb, poultry, sausages, seafood, stuffings, stews, soups, potatoes, tomatoes, and more. Its bluish flowers attract bees, and the plant is fairly resistant to pests, though susceptible to powdery mildew in humid climates.

Plant

Rosemary typically grows to about 1 metre in height, with some plants reaching 2 metres. The linear leaves resemble small curved pine needles—dark green and shiny above, white underneath. Flowers are borne in axillary clusters.

Maturity

Harvest begins around 90 days after planting.

Environment

Rosemary thrives in full sun to partial shade. Provide rich, well-drained soil and water evenly throughout the growing season, avoiding overwatering. It tolerates dry conditions but not consistently wet soil.
