As someone who thought growing rosemary was easy, I've managed to kill several in the past 3 years. It was a lot of trial and error and challenging in a non-mediterranean humid tropical environment but I eventually kept one alive for over a year now and darn proud of it. I found out that root rot was the main culprit in my past rosemary demise. I hope I can eventually see this one flower.

I’ve found that rosemary is pretty sensitive to uneven watering. It doesn’t like soil that’s wet or completely dry. It wants light, but even, soil moisture (and good drainage). This is more critical when it’s in a container than when it’s in the ground, but drought or very wet conditions can kill rosemary in the ground, too.

Agree about the moisture! I live in Mid Atlantic zone Z6b-7a. I read somewhere that indoor plants need ‘a little water every day’. I seldom manage daily, but water sparingly fairly often & it seems to work. For outside plants, ARP and Hill Hardy will winter over if sheltered in my area. A local friend thinks protecting the root ball is key. I cover my plants with old blankets in winter. Also - add a bit of lime to most herb plants. As to soil, I have heavy clay - not great for herbs!

Hi Kevin, I'm 77 and still gardening since a little girl. Reared our 4 children on fresh foods and herbs from our backyard garden. Subscribed here and enjoy. I have always grown Rosemary and share it. I struggle with digesting the pointed leaves. Even after they're dried the very ends where they attach to the branch there appears a seemingly woody tip. It takes a lot of time to fingernail clip those off. I'm thinking of creating a Rosemary powder with the dried leaves. Curious..... what are your thoughts that woody end of the leaves?. I like the idea of the Rosemary salt. I have, thru the years made herbal salts and it's great. Tks for all you do and teach; using your talents to the max :)

I also made rosemary salt from it, but I put the rosemary through the grinder by itself until it was "fine", then added it to a fine salt at a 1-1 ratio. This ratio allows the rosemary to really come through without too much salt ruining the dish. It's rosemary salt, not salty rosemary. 😁The 1-1 ratio works perfectly with steaks, roasted meats and potatoes.

A little rain never stops a gardener! I've a bit of a testimonial on the hardiness of Rosemary here in the Pacific NW. In my Portland Oregon garden (8b) I have grown rosemary *technically a sub shrub* for nearly 30 years in an exposed area near the street. My first plant, which I grew from seed, lived 8 years with no protection at all and very little care from me. It died one winter when we had a deeper cold that swept in with desiccating winter winds that we get here once in a while. Those winds freeze dried the needles and it died. Since then I have only had to cover my rosemary plants once or twice and other than that I just make sure the soil where they are planted drains well. To protect from freezing wrap with burlap. and be sure the plant is hydrated. Dry plants die more easily in freezing weather. Many many gardeners grow Rosemary here as a perennial plant, and even some in colder regions at the base of Mt Hood etc.. One reason it does so well here is that we are blessed with what is considered a classic Mediterranean climate. We have almost no measurable rainfall for 3 months beginning July 5th , and Rosemary LOVES, as do sage, thyme and others. We however also have clay based soils, which can be problematic unless they drain well, and mind does thankfully. Below is how I have also created better draining soil using the method Joy Creek Nursery came up with for their gardens. It has become a favorite method of soil amending here. Info on how to is below. TIP on soil prep if someone has heavier clay soil...add 1/4 minus 10 crushed rock, about 2" deep, with 2-3" of compost and dig into the top 6" of soil to help raise the soil level a bit and to enhance drainage. Works like a dream here. There are a lot of newer Rosemary varieties out I noticed.

So long as your soil is healthy and you pay attention you won't have any problems.

I have 300 feet of rosemary on my terrace walls. Other than trimming it 4 times a year it is maintenance free. The bees go crazy for the flowers and the birds love it if you let it go to seed a bit.

Bought a small Rosemary sprig? thing from a neighborhood Wal-Mart. I thought I was just buying a normal vegetable that had been harvested (like a stick of celery type thing) but when I got home and pulled it out the package, it was in a bloody growth pot. I didn't know what the heck to do it, so I put it at a window with some sun, watered it, and didn't pay much attention to the sad little plant over the next few weeks. Same thing they taught us to do in primary school. Next thing I know, its turned into the monster from The Thing with 17 limbs and is growing out all over the place like a afro....I'm thinking it's time to move it to another pot...so thank you very much for this video.

I always wondered why people around here (Inland Empire of So CA) don’t use rosemary a lot more in their landscaping since it is soooo easy to grow in this area and is so pretty and fragrant. Gets big enough to make a nice small bush or hedge. And is always there to pluck a little piece and have some aromatherapy.

Rosemary is said to help with memory. Rub a sprig in your hand and inhale. Also, rubbing in hand acts as an antibacterial of sorts. Do your research as I only remember this from reading it somewhere.

I'd like a video on growing cilantro progressively to always have some to cut and use, and then some going to seed too use the seed both culinary and to replant. I absolutely love cilantro. And also how to store it for later use like in a pesto and dried. I bought dried cilantro once in the spices and did not like it, but wondering if it's any better at all when I grow and dry it myself. I'd imagine though making cubes of a blend with perhaps garlic and something else and freezing it to flavor soups in the winter would be better than dried. I'd like to hear your suggestions. It's also the herb that scents the soil more than anything else I have ever encountered. Is that soil beneficial for other plants to be repotted in?

I’ve had three rosemary plants given to me for Christmas at different years. None survived and I followed the directions. My neighbour has one huge rosemary bush, never trims it or fertilizes it, her dogs urinate all over it and it’s thriving. 🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️☹️

I’m in Singapore too… it gets droopy the next day after I buy it off the shelf from the supermarket (looks super healthy when I bought it) I’m not sure if I should water it or leave it out in full sun… it’s currently in a place (balcony), not under a shade, but no direct sun… sigh…really not sure what I should do.. this is the 3rd time buying a Rosemary… it all didn’t make it… 😰

I keep trying to keep rosemary inside and it doesnt work well I can get a cutting to live for a year and it will get white mildew once got spider mites. I also didnt know they like being more dry so that is probably my problem they keep dying before they get a good size.

Did it get any direct sunlight inside? I used to have a rosemary on my outer window sill and it was doing great (until a new plant gave it powdery mildew, rosmary was the only one I didn't manage to save). But now I have to grow a new rosemary plant inside because I lost the window sill (when replacing my windows), and I'm wondering will it survive inside. It does get some direct sunlight, actually more in winter time, and less in spring and summer because the trees in front of my windows start blooming and being all leafy, making a lot of shade

Rosemary salt? 😳 Beautiful! Just pruned my out of control rosemary plants. This is happening today. Another person trims the ends of strawberries and leaves extra strawberry on it, dries them, and adds to her tea. Love these little things people share just as much as the main topics of their uploads. Thank you for taking time and effort to do these uploads. 😀

I suggest chopping the rosemary by hand- or alone in the herb/coffee grinder. Doing salts in there will lead to corrosion and will eventually seize the motor. I love the gardening outside in rain though. That’s reality!! ❤️
