Can I recomend growing rosemary in yor garden? Even if you are not a fan of it as an edible herb, it makes a very attractive addition to your garden.

Rosemary grows as a small shrub - it doesn't grow too quickly so it is easy to manage. In the late spring/early Summer, it produces pale, slighly off white flowers, which are very attractive. Mine kept its leaves throughout the winter, but I am not sure if this is normal.

The central stem of he Rosemary plant is woody, with long, narrow green leaves protruding all over it. The leaves resemble pine needles.

If you like herbs, fresh is definitely best. Rosemary is very easy to harvest, just remove the leaves as you need them. New growth generally tastes better than older leaves. Wash carefully to remove bugs.

Rosemary can be dried and burned, which is very pleasant. It uis ideal for use in smudging sticks and as an alternative to burnign insense. Dry the leaves thoroughly before bruning.
