Rosemary likes to have dry feet and prefers full sun but will grow in
high shade. My big rosemary gets a haircut every year as she gets to be
four feet tall and five feet across in one growing season. The plant is
on a slope, feet dry most of the time, never gets fertilized or babied.

With a lot of the herbs we grow it's best to remember they mostly come
from the Mediterranean area and are used to lots of sun and little
water. HTH

I am having trouble not killing rosemary. I have no clue what I am
doing wrong. I have planted small starts in different places in my
yard, in case too much/not enough sun was an issue. I even totally
ignored once bunch, thinking I was killing it with kindness...

I really enjoy fresh rosemary, so would welcome any advice.

btw: I live in zone 9b.....
