Help With Rosemary
I have trouble trying to keep rosemary alive. I know it's a tender
perennial, but last year I tried putting it in a pot and bringing it inside, and it still didn't make it. I live in zone 6 and generally keep the pot in an east window. Any tips for keeping rosemary in a pot? How often does it need to be watered? What kind of lighting do they like? Thanks! Jennifer |

Maybe you should try a hardier variety of rosemary. I'm also in zone 6 and
have several friends around here that have rosemary outside. "styxx374" wrote in message om... I have trouble trying to keep rosemary alive.

Please tell me what varities they have! Though I'm in Z5, I have a great microclimate in one area that might work. Cheryl I'm not positive what varieties they have, because they didn't save the tags. Doing a google search only came up with one variety that is hardy to zone 6: Madalene Hill Rosemary. Here's a couple links, the second one has general care information also: http://www.mountainvalleygrowers.com...delinehill.htm http://www.nationalgardening.com/art...food=perennial |

I believe "Arp" is hardy to Z6, and Salem MIGHT be. I grow both in Z7,
outdoors, in the ground, and in completely unprotected spots and have had them for years. Cyndi tmtresh wrote: Please tell me what varities they have!
