Description
Description
The Chef's Choice® Culinary Rosemary from the Southern Living Plant Collection is what you have been looking for! It was added to the Collection for two main reasons: it has a compact controlled mounding growth habit that makes it perfect for the low-maintenance gardener, AND it has a higher oil content, which is ideal for the culinary aficionado!
Furthermore, in spring this garden gem will produce petite violet-blue flowers. Snip them off and bring them inside as cut flowers. You'll enjoy the fragrance as well as the color interest.
The Chef's Choice Culinary is a drought and heat-tolerant variety with impressive salt tolerance. So coastal gardeners can plant without fear!
We recommend placing in a garden bed or container garden in or near outdoor living areas so you can enjoy the sweet fragrance in the breeze.
Reaches a mature size of 1-2 feet high x 1-2 feet wide, with no maintenance required!

Top dress your soil with 3-4 inches of compost or composted manure every year to provide steady food for your newest garden addition.
Fertilize with a balanced, organic fertilizer in spring to promote growth and the health of your plant. Stop fertilizing in late summer to early fall in order to encourage the hardening off of foliage for the winter.
