I'm looking at a Rosemary bush in the garden which has got a bit scruffy

that it doesn't grow from old wood. Or does it?

In my coarse gardening experience you can cut them back a long way as long
as you make sure there are plenty of green shoots on the wreckage.

As others have said, layer or take cuttings first just in case.

I have struck a load of Rosemary and a few Lavender cuttings this year and
they all seem to be doing well.

Which leaves me with the minor problem of what to do with the extra ones.
