rosemary - herb, page-5

Never ever seen 6 foot tall rosemary. But it can grow to 3 ft and quite wide. Copes well with pruning. I've seen a pathway with rosemary growing on both sides in one of those upmarket Open Gardens, because as people brush past the bushes, there's loads of rosemary perfume released. Because rosemary is for memory, then you can find it also in memorial gardens, especially if people's ashes are buried nearby. Useful for baked potato cooking- first steam potato lightly, then scratch the potato surfaces with a fork, cover with duck fat, if you have some, and then roll them in rosemary. Best spuds ever. Just need to pick a small stem or two and that will be plenty. Very useful plant indeed and will last for years.
