Every summer I grow rosemary in a pot outside. When the weather turns
cold, I bring the pot inside. The plant does well for a couple more
months, then dies every time. (One time it bloomed, then died.) What
can I do?

IIRC the name of rosemary is Latin based and means "dew of the sea"
therefore it will do well in Mediterranean conditions ie. warm to hot,
sunny, well drained. One of those at least is probably missing from what
you are giving your plants.

That's good for the summer, what's missing is that the Mediterranean biome
has cool, moist winters. My rosemary does fine in the ground outside, even
though we occasionally get a day or two of snow. Perhaps it's the lack of
being outside during the cool?
