Rosemary seeds - Culinary Perennial Garden Container Herb
 Rosemary (Rosemarinus Officinalis) - An easy to grow drought tolerant perennial herb that enhances many foods including breads, vegetables and meats. It is also attractive and great to use for xeriscape landscaping due to its low water use. Grow Rosemary from herb seeds to create a lovely garden or container herb plant that is highly resistant to deer, drought and pests.

Sowing: Since growing rosemary from seed is a long and difficult process, start the seeds indoors 5-6 months in advance of transplanting. Press the organic rosemary seeds lightly into the soil and place in a sunny spot, since rosemary requires light for germination; keep the temperature at 65-70 degrees F. Keep the soil lightly moist, using a spray bottle or careful watering. Germination will be very slow, up to a month, with a naturally low percentage of the seeds sprouting. When the plants grow big enough to handle safely and there is no chance of frost, transplant them to light soil and full sun 18-24" apart. Rosemary thrives in dry and stony soils, and can be easily propagated from cuttings; it also makes an excellent container plant, especially in winters that drop below 17 degrees F.
Growing: Once rosemary has been established, it will grow quite well on its own without watering or fertilization. If overwatered, the plant may suffer from root rot. After flowering, the plant should be pruned to prevent straggly, unhealthy growth.
Harvesting: Once the plant is well established, harvest fresh leaves when needed; the peak flavor is achieved immediately before the plant flowers, but after this point the flavor becomes lost. Fresh rosemary can be dried or frozen for future use. The leaves should be dried quickly to preserve their color and flavor.
