    • Rosmarinus prostratus

       
      Characteristics: 'Prostrate' is a low-growing rosemary, lovely as a ground-cover. Also looks stunning in containers, where its beautiful blue flowers can be shown off on a sunny windowsill.

      Light: Rosemary loves tons and tons of sunshine.

      Water: Rosemary can withstand some drought. Water when soil is dry to the touch, but never over-water. Rosemary does not like soggy over-watered environments.

      Soil: If planted in the ground, make sure your soil is well-draining. I usually dig a deep hole, fill a bit with rocks or gravel, then plant rosemary on top to ensure adequate drainage. If you are container planting, be sure to choose a pot with drainage holes on the bottom. Clay pots are even better, to keep that soil dry.

      Use: Rosemary is a wonderful culinary herb, popularly flavoring lamb, venison, poultry, and potato dishes.


      Extras: Every year around Christmastime, I think to myself "what makes poinsettias so Christmasy?" I choose todecorate my house during the holidays with big established rosemary pots. What better way to get in the mood for the warm culinary delights of holiday meals?
