Rosemary Seeds - 20 Seed Packet - Heirloom Herb Garden Seeds - Non-GMO Culinary Herb Gardening - Ornamental and Edible Perennial Herb

Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis) is an ornamental evergreen herb that naturally forms a compact shrub. Mature plants typically reach about 2 feet in height and spread, producing narrow, needle-like green leaves with a distinct fragrance. The plant adapts well to both outdoor gardens and container cultivation, making it suitable for a wide range of growing conditions. This herb is widely grown for culinary purposes. The leaves can be harvested fresh or dried and are commonly used to season poultry, meats, seafood, vegetables, and a variety of recipes. In addition to its culinary value, rosemary is often planted as an ornamental herb for its attractive appearance and aromatic foliage. Rosemary seeds can be slow and irregular to germinate, often with less than 50% success, so sowing should be done heavily to achieve adequate plant numbers. The plant prefers full sun and well-drained soil. Once established, rosemary is a hardy perennial in warmer climates but requires winter protection in colder regions where temperatures drop below freezing. This versatile herb is suitable for kitchen gardens, borders, herb planters, and decorative containers, providing both practical and ornamental value throughout the growing season.
