Rosmarinus officinalis Rosemary

 
 

Close up of Rosemary Flower

 

A single Rosemary Bush just starting to bloom.

The Rosemary on the left was started from a three inch pot about eight years ago; it is now about six feet in diameter and four feet high. It is just starting to open its buds that were formed last spring. As you can see in the next picture, when it blooms it is a totally blue hue!

This is one of our favorite Rosemary varieties because of its carefree growth, great flavor and dark blue flower. Leaves can be used fresh or dried. If used fresh be sure to chop them very fine or use whole stems and remove from food before serving. Add to our savory herbal marinade and chicken becomes a sensational dish. Cook in a pouch on the barbecue on low heat. Or use whole stems to make flavorful shish kabob spear. Whole stems also make a great addition to Red Stew, a stick to your ribs winter time treat.

 Rosemary is one of the six plants chosen to be in our
  Kitchen Herb Garden Six Pack
and is often included in our 
Basic Culinary Herb 36 Pack Assortment.
