Growing Instructions:
Rosemary seeds can be slow and sometimes tricky to germinate, but with patience, they are well worth the effort. Start seeds indoors about 8–10 weeks before your last expected frost. Sow seeds on the surface of well-draining seed-starting mix and lightly press them in without covering, as they need light to germinate. Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged and maintain a temperature of around 65–75°F. Germination can take 14–28 days or longer.
Once seedlings are large enough to handle, transplant them into individual pots or directly into the garden after all danger of frost has passed. Choose a location with full sun and well-drained soil. Avoid overwatering, as rosemary prefers slightly dry conditions. Prune regularly to encourage bushy growth and harvest as needed once plants are established.
Grow your own fresh rosemary and enjoy a fragrant, flavorful herb that enhances both your garden and your kitchen.
