Rosemary is a fragrant herb that’s not only great for cooking but also adds beauty to your garden or home. Here's how to care for it:
-
Light: Rosemary thrives in full sunlight, needing at least 6-8 hours of direct light each day.
-
Watering: Water when the top inch of soil is dry. Rosemary prefers well-draining soil and does not like to sit in water.
-
Soil: Use sandy or well-draining soil to prevent root rot. A cactus mix works well for potted rosemary.
-
Temperature: Prefers warm temperatures between 60-75°F (16-24°C), and is sensitive to frost.
-
Pruning: Trim regularly to promote bushier growth and prevent it from becoming leggy.
With minimal care, rosemary will provide fresh, aromatic leaves year-round!
