#ProPlantTips for Care:
Rosemary loves more Mediterranean environments - hot, sunny and on the drier side. Plant in a well-drained site, or container with great drainage holes. Once established, these thrive in low moisture and occasional drought. Rosemary is annual in colder zones or can be brought indoors for the winter. It’s a perennial in warmer climates, and in fact, it can grow large with age!
- Full Sun
- Sharply-Drained Enriched Soil
- Low to Moderate Moisture Once Established
- Prune Back in Early Spring if Needed
- Woody Perennial in Zones 8-11
Full of flavor, rich in color, and pleasing to the senses, Cascading Rosemary is a gorgeous form of a favorite garden herb! Order this and other unique herb plants for your garden or porch containers today from NatureHills.com!
