Rosemary is a slow-growing, woody aromatic herb with needle-like leaves and a strong fragrance. It thrives in bright sunlight and drier soil, and once established, provides regular harvests for fresh or dried culinary use.

🪴 Growing Guide

1. Sowing:
   1. Setup: Use a seed-starting tray or small pots with seed-starting mix.
   2. Sow: Place seeds on the surface, press lightly, space 1 inch apart.
   3. Transplant: Move seedlings to separate pots when they have 2-3 true leaves.
2. Watering: Keep soil moist but not soggy. Water gently to avoid disturbing seeds.
3. Fertilization:
   1. General care: Rosemary generally needs little fertilizer. Plants in garden soil usually need no routine feeding.
   2. Container plants: Established plants may need a light general-purpose feed during active growth, especially after more than a year in the same mix. Follow the product’s labelled container rate; there is no need to switch to a fruiting fertilizer when flowers appear.
4. Sunlight: Provide as much direct sunlight as possible for optimal growth.
5. Pests: Use neem oil for pest control when pests are detected.
