Planting & Care

Sow rosemary seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before the last frost. Press seeds lightly into the soil surface and keep moist but not waterlogged. Germination can be slow and uneven, so patience is required. Once seedlings are large enough, transplant them outdoors after the danger of frost has passed, spacing them 18-24 inches apart in a sunny, well-drained location.

Water regularly during the first growing season to help establish a deep root system. Once established, rosemary is drought-tolerant and only needs occasional watering. Prune lightly after flowering to maintain shape and encourage bushy growth. In colder zones, grow rosemary in containers and bring indoors for winter.
