  • Rosemary “Rosmarinus officinalis”
  • Well-drained, ideally neutral to alkaline soil in full sun with shelter in cold areas as it rarely survives prolonged freezing
  • Remove dead stems and weak growth in spring, prune after flowering to encourage bushy growth
  • Fresh or dried leaves are used for flavouring, especially meat such as lamb. Fresh sprigs can be steeped in vinegar or olive oil
