Growing & using White Rosemary
White Rosemary makes a grand statement in the landscape with its extremely erect growth. Like all Rosemary plants it blooms from mid winter to late spring. It is highly aromatic, great for cooking and attractive to bees.
Rosemary’s genus has been reclassified as Salvia. Previously it was in the genus Rosmarinus. All Rosemary is now botanically known as Salvia rosmarinus. Common names have not changed. So instead of Rosmarinus officinalis “White Rosemary”, the correct name is now Salvia rosmarinus “White Rosemary”. We will, as time goes by and more folks get used to this, change all botanic references for these plants.
This plant is often available in plug trays. These trays hold 128 of all the same plant. They are a great low cost way to fill a lot of space. Each cell is 3/4 of inch by an inch. Check here to see if White Rosemary Plug Trays are available.
