Description:
Rosemary, whose Latin name means "dew of the sea", occupies a special place in the repertoire of herbs used by cooks since ages.
Culinary Tip:
A handful of dry rosemary stems thrown on the embers of a barbecue enhances the flavor while grilling. It is also perfect to match it with the taste of summer vegetables and white meats.
Culture Tip:
1. Sowing: Sow March to May in pots or planters in full sun.
2. Transplanting: In the fall, replant the most vigorious seedlings in bigger pots or directly in the soil.
3. Harvest: Gather the ends of stems one year after planting, from July to September. For best results harvest rosemary stems at flowering time.
Companion plants:
Rosemary loves the proximity of sage as their association is beneficial for both.
