Growing a Rosemary bush
Hello
I have grown Rosemary in a large pot for many years during the summer months, and have always thrown it away late Autumn, then bought a new plant next spring. I've just bought a new plant ( 'upright Rosemary' ) and I read on its label that it can be grown into a bush up to 2 metres high !! Has anyone grown a Rosemary bush before?, does it survive the winter?, does it smell & taste as good as a new plant does ? Thanks KK It may be Miss Jessop's Upright and some people use it as an informal hedge. I think 2 metres is pushing it a bit, though. Where do you live?! We have rosemarys that survive all winters, including this one and it's usually regarded as pretty hardy. It's a shrub so take cuttings and propagate new ones but there's no reason at all to throw it away each year. -- Sacha My Rosemary is 10 years old and does not care what the weather does, I keep it at about 1mtr. tall by light pruning and just take out any branches that get in the way. It is just coming into flower now kate |
