An evergreen culinary herb growing in a bushy habit, which flowers in Spring. Hardy in mild UK winters down to -10°C.

Pick a sunny, well-drained and sheltered spot and your garden will soon be full of the fragrance of rosemary! This plant will flower in Spring and is recognisable for its fragrance, but the most notable aspect of Rosemary is its use in cooking, and this variety is no exception. Good to harvest year-round, rosemary adds flavour to your cooking, scent to your garden and even attracts bees- what's not to love! It's a good idea to pune back after it's finished flowering and, of course, these cuttings can be dried for culinary use too.

Perennial
Herb: bushy growth habit
Flowers March - May, foliage you can harvest year-round


Scientific Name
Rosmarinus officinalis (Rosemary from the office/workshop) 'Green Rosi'

Common Name
Rosemary

Origin
Originates in the Mediterranean region.

Pruning Tips
Trim back annually in late spring or early summer, once it has finished flowering, to keep it in a neat size and shape.

Wildlife Value
Nectar for butterflies, nectar & pollen for bees including honey bees, bumblebees and some solitary species (pics of Macropis species, red mason bee). It flowers early so is a good food source when the weather is still cool! It may even protect bees from mites. Also good for Bombylius bee flies.

Positioning
Full sun is best for this plant; remember, it's adapted to the Mediterranean so is used to a little more sun than in the UK! It will also appreciate some shelter.

Water
Water in dry weather; this shouldn't be too often in the UK. Young plants can suffer in winter if their roots are soggy for long periods, so make sure especially when you first put it outside that it can drain well, whether in a container or straight into soil.

Soil
Ensure this plant is in a soil that drains well; it can struggle in clay, especially over winter. If you have a cold clay soil, mix in bark or grit before planting, or plant in a container.

Food
Feed with a general fertiliser during the growing season to help this plant grow.

Pet-safe
Yes, this plant has no reported toxicity- and, of course, can be used as seasoning in your cooking!

Sprouts Top Tips
Rosemary can suffer in the cold and wet of a British winter, so bring your plants under cover to protect them in cold winters.

Important Information

If you have any questions, please check out the below or get in touch via our contact form

We're devoted to sending our customers quality plants with the best service around. Every plant is backed by our 7-day guarantee, so they arrive in good health.

Our team takes extra steps when prepping plants for transportation, but they're still sensitive to changes, so there may be minor cosmetic issues. We always aim to photograph and disclose any flaws before shipping, but a living creature travelling across the country in a box can take a hot minute to adjust to its new life.

If you have any issues within 7 days of receiving your order, holler at our customer support team on our contact form with your order details and some pics of the issue. After the guarantee has expired, though, we can't refund as we can't guarantee care and environmental factors. If you repot the plant during the 7 days, the guarantee is void.

We have been sending plants up and down the country for many year now and we like to think we have our way down to an art.

We protect the plant from falling out of the soil with tissue paper and tape if needed, then we wrap the plant in corrugated cardboard, and sometimes we protect the leaves with extra tissue paper if required. This is then placed into a box and if there is any empty space, we fill this with void fill to stop the plants moving around inside the box. Sometimes we will write a note on your packing slip to water the plant on arrival, so please look out for this. This is due a freshly watered plant going in a box will not only be soggy, but as the plant is in darkness this can sometimes make the plant unhappy when just freshly watered.

If your plant arrives to you unhappy, please send us a photo of the plant and packaging if relevant straight away, so we can advise you.

Online orders are packed and dispatched within a few days. Usually depending on volumes, we aim to get your order dispatched within 1 working day. We have collections from Royal Mail 6 days a week so deliveries tend to be speedy.

Our standard parcel delivery service is £4.99 for Royal Mail Tracked48, you can upgrade to Tracked24 for £2.50.

We do offer a Tracked48 Large Letter option for £2.99, and Tracked24 for £1 extra, but this only applies to products less than 2.5cm thick.

*Deliveries 7 days a week only included Tracked24 parcels.
