Rosemary

Rosemary is an evergreen herb that is used to flavor, soups, stews, pasta dishes, and poultry dishes. It is very aromatic and is a member of the mint family! Due to it’s origins in the Mediterranean, it doesn’t fair well in the winter in Ohio, so if you would like to keep this plant year round, it’s best to plant this in a large container.

Planting/Harvesting Notes

Rosemary comes from an arid environment and therefore prefers 6-8 hours of sunlight a day and well draining soil. Rosemary prefers drier soil than most herbs so if you plant rosemary in a container, allow it to dry out between watering. Place the container outside when the herb starts flowering in the second year. This will allow the herb to be pollinated naturally.
