I did that, all i did was plonk 2 pieces into a pot i had on my kitchen window without doing anything special it was some rosemary clippings i had bought at a supermarket for making focatcha garnishing / flavor enfusion and plugging some camembert cheese. I now have two little rosemary plants wich is so cool 👏👏🏴🇿🇦
Right on Heather, so cool! Its such a great and versatile herb!
Wow, that’s exactly what I plan to do. Thanks for sharing. I’m off to Tesco! 😊
👍 will try grow some . Tks
Never thought it Is so easy . Tks 👍
I put mine in glass of water… maybe I should just plant it instead for quicker rooting?
I grow lot’s of rosemary for the branches. I cut them up and put all the branches around my fruit trees and basically every where in my yard. Stops cats,snails and any other animals in my yard. I just leave them there until following spring and then put fresh ones again. They are even better when dry also.
Great video. Thank you. Happy gardening.
Right on! I love all the uses for Rosemary!! :-)
Stops cats ? Not in my yard. I have big too big Rosemary's plants and bushy all over, and it's the cats' best hanging sleeping spot. The Rosemary's plants are 15 years each. I trim them, but they grow fast . I say if you're generous, your hand will make everything grow fast . Even when I go and have my hair trimed, I start a conversation with the stylist, let's say, about a movie , I do make the story up so she can tghrou her opinions all about generous and tight people , and depends on her answer i will decide she is in or out intel I find that generous lady to cut my hair , plants and hair are the same , 😊
oh, thank you, I didn't know it serves as a repellent for the unwanted animal visitors. 'will definitely try that.
@@TheRipeTomatoFarmsthanks for the information on growing rosemary very helpful.

Been trying to root rosemary for about a year. Now I understand where I was going wrong. Thanks for the tutorial. Will try again. Love from Jamaica.
Thanks .. I have got what I always longed for
I AM FROM JAMAICA AND not gotten a successful plant yet from cuttings but will keep trying since seeing your tutorial.
What were u doing wrong? So I can learn what not to do because I'm going to start this
lol. you're funny with all your accounts. i thought u were from Canada @@jenniferbogle6809
I love the way you have naturally given this rosemary growing tutorial, so calmly, without assuming prior knowledge on the simple steps. I grew in a farm but to me it was hard labour, peasant farming and so I was so eager to show it my back to city living but now looking back with people such as you Vadana Shiva a back to nature advocate and an enemy to Monsanto 's activities to what belongs to the world, seeds, natural seeds, I am a farmer even thou on my back yard🤣 Thank you for sharing that knowledge with without being tempted to patent it😂 it.
Hey thanks Winnie, appreciate that! 🙂
Thank you! Every video I've found about "creating" a rosemary topiary starts with a rosemary topiary that just needs light pruning. Which is not.... creating one. This was exactly what I needed! Thank you!
I have hundreds of rosemary around my home as border plants pruned to two feet and never thought of doing this technique . Thanks as I would love to add further in my garden .
Ha ha watch your hundreds turn into thousands!
You can use honey and/or dried cinnamon instead of a commercial rooting powder. Smells good too...
Thanks Pollie!
Hi. Do honey or cinneman powder help to develop the roots. Never heard of this. Thanks
I'm going to try this, thanks
@@sushmakhajuria3135 I’ve grown some rosemary from cuttings without any thing all I did was break ff a branch and put it in the soil and it worked
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms ¾ù
im a pastry chef. recently, we bought rosemary for the kitchen, we plan to harvest the rosemary to use it in our cake decors. thank you for your video, hopefully this chef will not only have green food colouring thumbs !
That's so awesome! I wish more restaurants would use live herb gardens and create seasonal dishes off of them!
We just bought a smaller pot of rosemary never thought it could grow that big! Now we have the idea! Thanks a lot! :)
Oh yeah, they can become quite invasive! And quickly too. Think small tree! Ha ha!
Same story here.
I loved your video and now going to my Rosemary plants to make some cuttings. You gave an outstanding narration and easy to follow for the average person out there. You can tell you love what you do! Thanks for all your help and we appreciate great tutorials like this.
Thanks so much Azita! I really appreciate the kinds words and support! Hopefully the videos are helpful and get better as we go along! :-)
Can’t wait to try this. I have a wild Rosemary plant I want to share. Read that chewing on the leaves prevents migraines. Worth a try!
Right on Melanie, let us know how it goes!
I use the branches from pruning. I use woody parts and new growth but new growth roots way better. Take a whole lot of cuttings because not everyting will root. I put them in old used pottingsoil and keep the soil wet. Not moist but wet. Works like a charm. I've been doing this for years. When you want to take a big cutting you should layer a branch. I've used layering a couple of times with succes. I do like to leave it in the ground for about a year. Also when you plant the rosemary it likes poor sandy very good draining soil, little to no watering when it is established and preverably full sun. They like brick walls too because it retains heat at night. And when you prune them each year or every other year the bush grows more compact, has more new growth and looks nicer. That's just a my two cents from the experience I have with rosemary. It's a great plant and super easy. I primarily grow it for the scent and looks.
what is the best way to prune? I live in FL, so the soil in my yard is poor sandy fast draining soil already
@@katvsdaedreamz8628 After bloom is when I usually prune. Late may, early june. But they can be pruned year round if you want to.But if you want flowers late may early june.Don't cut the whole shrub away but it can take a heavy pruning if necessary.
Thanx themadsamplist! Poor, sandy, well-drained soil for sure! Interesting about the layering! Thank you so much for sharing. I am starting to wonder if Rosemary is like my raspberries in that rooting in soil is a better option than straight water? More air, contact with natural hormones in the soil.. Etc. Food for thought!
@@katvsdaedreamz8628 I prune early morning as studies have shown that the rooting hormones are highest in the apex (top) of the plant at that time of day!
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms I don't like rooting in water and get bad results when I try it no matter what plant. And when I do have success I find the transition to soil difficult for the plant. I always use pottingsoil and usually used pottingsoil. That doesn't tend to harden up and doesn't dry out as much. And I keep it wet. Works for me and I've been doing it for years now with rosemary, sage, butterfly bushes, conifers and more. And I like to cover the soil with moss, bark, twigs, leaves and stuff like that to reduce evaporation of water. And I keep them in the shade. Just stuff I found out by trying.
"Rosemary is dead easy to grow from cuttings." Well with my cuttings, the word "dead" definitely seems to be correct sir! Haha! I took several about 6 weeks ago and put one in water and the rest in general purpose compost. The one in water was about to be evicted and sent to the great herb garden in the sky as I thought it had rotted but just in time I noticed three tiny roots appearing so it is now on parole!
As for the others, they seem to be static with little black bits on the ends of their leaves so I have cut them back a bit in the hope that the other end might grow roots (if they have not already done so!)
I read that stressing cuttings sometimes encourages growth so I have cursed at them frequently but rather than being stressed I do not think that they are taking me seriously and they have lost the will to live!
Incidentally I am in UK.
SO funny! Let us know the outcome! haha!
@@g.e.boroush5176 Well GEB there have been more deaths I am sorry to say but (without wanting to tempt faith) three are still with us in "the land of the living" so far! As for a thyme cutting, it has joined the great herb garden in the sky for some reason. I am not sure if it died through lack of water but my understanding was that it was supposed to prefer arid conditions! Perhaps it was in some pact with the Rosemary and decided to "give up the ghost"? On the other hand, several thyme plants in the garden have been well and truly watered recently and they are looking decidedly ill so in no time there will be no thyme at this rate.
On the bright side, some mint looks as though it wants to cover the whole of Northern Europe so "win some, lose some" as they say.
I was planting things for the benefit of the bees, butterflies, birds and beasts but it has been so hot then so wet I think most of them have decided to emigrate to a country that knows what sort of weather it wants and sticks to it!
@@georgealderson4424 Sounds about right for my area in the west of England. 😂 I knew well enough that mint was very prolific but put just a tiny weak looking bit in my big oak half barrel with other herbs that were well established and it’s taken over. I thought the sage monster growing like crazy would be a good contender to keep it at bay but how wrong can you be. It was the pot I originally bought for a bay tree that was only growing really slowly with small leaves that kept being eaten by various insects. At least that is doing so much better with much bigger healthier leaves and doesn’t seem at all bothered by the fight for space around it between the other herbs. 😊
@@Pinkfox56 Haha. The battles continue. It's just as well that there is no noise from the garden fight or the neighbours might start complaining! It wouldn't be so bad if some plants fought to survive nevermind tried to take over.
I planted various herbs for the benefit of the wildlife but I don't think they are impressed or even grateful as after an initial buzzy period they seem to have emigrated!
;'D The great herb garden in the sky! ;'D
Yeah, I've been chewing out my pomegranate tree lately and it's not taking me seriously, either. It's in transplant shock and I'm afraid it's gonna die and every time I go out to say nice things to it, I wind up asking it why it can't just buck up and do what it's supposed to, as though I'm a parent of a depressed teenager in the 70s. Gardening is hard work!
My bush fell over but just kept growing. It’s a little mini hedge now. It was originally a potted plant I bought in the veggie aisle at the grocery store. I cut branches off and make a bed for roasts or chicken or pork. I also keep some of the dried leaves, left whole, to add to brining water. Thanks to you, I’m going to expand to other plants as well as make some cuttings to give away. Thank you so much. 🙂
How fortuitous! They do that sometimes. Very adventageous...its why they are such vigorous growers.
So needed and clear, explained in a simple way!
Thank you so much 😀
Thank you for that, and thanks for the support! :-)
I am glad I found you AGAIN! My client brought me Rosemary and now I want to grow mine and hers!! 🪴
I've wanted big rosemary bushes for years! I now live in a place where they'll work, and a neighbor offered me free cuttings from her plant :) Thanks for the guidance!
Awesome Laura, best of luck!! Let us know how the planting goes! :-)
Thanks for the clear and simple instructions for those of us who are gardeningly challenged! I’ve subscribed and look forward to learning more :D
Thanks so much Nicky, appreciate the support! :-)
same here, appreciate the detailed video. am def not a green thumb n have limited knowledge, but curiosity & fascination remain. I've got a huge rosemary bush (which i fail to trim periodically) that seems to be growing heartily (zone 9b, clay soil😕). recently noticed that the bush has flowered.
silly Q's, what to do with the flowers? n should I prune & separate the large bush, and/or up-root the rosemary n try growing new ones in the same spot? (I don't use them for cooking or other things, just growing them so they retain greenery to & repel unwanted pests, in the yard).
Sadly my cuttings didn't survive this time :( but I will try again this year!@@tylin168
Wow !!! What a Simple & Practical Explanation ... How to making the Rosemary Bush-garden ... Really Appreciated !!!
Rosemary is my favorite plant and I keep several of them indoors for many years. Now time to have a young generation of them and this video is helpful.
Thanks so much! I agree, an amazing plant, no question!
Very explanatory. I can now grow my rosemary effortlessly with this tutorials. Thank you.
Thanks, best of luck! :-)
Next up in the Herb Series is propagating your Basil from cuttings. MUCH faster and easier than Rosemary, taking cuttings from your Basil and rooting them will give you unlimited Basil harvests, all through the winter to next spring! Check out the new video here! czcams.com/video/w8lOkGoTXck/video.html
I did the water method after watching your video. It’s been about 2 weeks and now I have tons of roots!! Thank you for doing this video.
Thank-you! I just found you today, & subscribed. I've been planting onions that sprouted before I used them- just by sticking them in the yard, but your onion video was very helpful. Now I can eat them & still grow them. Also I've got a big, old rosemary & wanted more, so finding this was super timely. Wishing you well.
Super awesome Patricia! Thanks for the support! Happy growing. 🍅🎋🍍🍆🌶🍓🍈🌱
Just love the information you are putting out here. It is leading more of the general public, like me , to get involved.We now have easy access to the information, some valuable lessons to pass on to the grand kids. Thanks soooo much . LOVE this.
I’m new to your channel and I love it. I’ve watched green opinions, white onions, celery, now Rosemary. Thanks so much. You are really easy to watch. I’m excited to try all of these! 👍
Thanks so much Kim! That's awesome! I really do appreciate the support!
I, too, love green opinions
@@alexissmith169 LOL 😆!
Great video, so nicely presented and easy to follow! I’m away to take some Rosemary cuttings now thank you! ☘️☘️☘️☘️
Thanks Fiona, appreciate that! :-)
Thank you! I used to have rosemary plant in every house i lived, and it would grow into a tree, it is true that rosemary is a very rigorous plant. Now i don't have any... growing them from stems is such a great idea, i wish i thought about it before moving out and leaving my plants at old houses.... i am going to start doing it now though. Thank you for the video! Rosemary has a lot of magical properties beside of its wide use in cooking. It is very beneficial to keep rosemary plant at home or in the garden. Everyone should have it 😉😉 Thanks again for sharing!!
Ha ha you just need one sprig and you're good to go!
Did you grow it indoors?
Never thought of planting my own but THANKS TO YOU I’m gonna try grow my own for the first time and while at it,will subscribe to your channel and learn more.
Thank You✌🏿🇿🇦
Right on! Best of luck and thanks for the support!
I tried few dozen cuttings and seeds, nothing.
Now I got 2 cutting in soil, after 10 days they are still green, maybe some hope. 🙂

Thank you for this easy to follow video. We love Rosemary here in Ireland. We make our own sausage with rosemary and a few other herbs and spices. It makes for a delicious homemade egg and sausage "Mac"Muffin.
Right on Janet, sounds delicious! :-)
Seeds vs Starter Plants? Ever wondered which was better in your garden? Wonder no more!: czcams.com/video/nIo6uAARp5U/video.html
Thank you... here in Nevada and discovered the plants at my son's apartment complex, then I noticed that they were everywhere. Going to put it around my pool so I can serve myself and I do love it just as much or more than you do ❤
I make butter and rosemary rice... I put it in eggs, on all my meats, in soups, my breads, potatoes, even my homemade jam... but that's a secret recipe😂
I grow my rosemary in a large pot and prune it every few years to keep it lush and compact. My neighbour planted a single rosemary plant in her front garden and now it has overtaken about a third of the space. It’s a huge monster. She has it pruned once a year to prevent it from engulfing everything else. Your warning about its vigorous growing habits is a wise one.
Its crazy eh Margo? When you think of herbs, you don't think of invasive beasts, ha ha! But Rosemary won't be reckoned with!
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms nothing much more invasive than mint...
Love your water method. Thank you my sister is rooting some right. Been doing water method for about 2 weeks. Thank you for your method.❤️
Right on Judy, let us know how it works out! 🙂
I have always pruned in fall, and felt defeated when it doubled in size again mid-spring! Pruning those new shoots in the spring seems much more effective, especially if I can pot them up to share.
I prefer my rosemary ground to a fine powder, then used as a dry rub with black pepper on a pork loin, cooked long and slow in the smoker. 🤤
As a person with scalp issues, I can use it as a hair rinse to calm things down. Its high oil content makes for excellent homemade smudge\aroma sticks too!
Hi Linda, it really is a remarkable plant! Take care! 🙂
I also like rosemary for tea and to put in yeast rolls when I make homemade yeast rolls. I'm glad this video popped up in my recommended videos, my rosemary had outgrown the terra cotta pot I've had it in for years; this video reminded me that I used to take cutting and grow new rosemary plants, I had one out in my yard at my previous home that did get very big. I moved in 2021 and been so busy developing garden areas and working on the old farmhouse that is on my property that I totally forgot how lovely rosemary is in landscape! I'm now in northwest Florida 8b and loving it up in this part of the state.
Great video, explained everything I wanted to know and your pleasure in growing makes for an enjoyable video!
Great Video! Thanks for sharing! Going to use the 5 gallon method to make sure I can get the right spot for it! I guess that's about all I didn't pick up on. I live in Southern Oregon, thanks again for such an informative video!
you explain everything soooo detailed & supported by logical reasoning!!!! thank you !!!! , I learned & enjoyed watching your video very much.
Thanks Shahla, appreciate that! :-)
I love the smell of rosemary and to bake focaccia bread. Thanks for the instruction to grow more. I'll give it a try.
Totally agree Wendy! It's not just for seasoning meats!

I bought a rosemary plant and it took quite a while to start growing and when it did start to grow ,it didn't take long to dry up because I was so busy with work that I didn't water it, it looked so dry that I felt bad about it
@@maryanneville4397 it happens to all of us Mary! Were you able to resurrect the plant? Rosemary is pretty resilient to drought I have found!
Thanks G... I know it's a year later, but I have a herb propagation series coming out.. My plan is to do a time lapse "stages of growth" for Rosemary cuttings... Give people an idea of the timeline, rather than the straight how-to like this video. Cheers!
Cooked with dry rosemary for the first time a few months ago and it smelled and tasted amazing. Made my whole apartment smell incredible too. I have a container big enough for a full sized rosemary plant so it looks like I'll be growing rosemary next year.
the first time ? are you 5 years old ?
@@eggspanda2475 don't be rude. I started using rosemary this year. never liked herbs before but started this year after learning of their healing properties.

Thanks for taking the time off to share such wonderful info on Rosemary, i love it myself, knowledge is power, bro keep doing what u are doing u are educating the world on how to grow food, info do spread
I love rosemary and use it every day. I dry them then I grind them in the grinder to make a power and sprinkle iy in everything because it is anti aging, anti viral and has many good things on it. I even use it on my hand made soap as an natural preservative and my soaps last more than a year fresh. Thanks for the tip on how to grow them.

its gold....for people whom have respiratory weakness or irritations this helps to reduce or even eliminate symptoms and strengthen immune system in the upper repritory area!!!
Wow, I never knew that! I wonder if it would help with my seasonal allergies where my breathing can sometimes get affected?
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms Yes it will help...consider fasting or taking a full on stop break from any and all Dairy products for 2-4 weeks...then introduce something that would be a normal thing for you to consume and document you response..best way to prove its .toxic effect to you personally ......dairy is huge on diminishing our airways and immune system...as it is over loaded with estrogen from pregnant cows...which is highly inflammatory and too many antibiotics...again inflammatory!! its worth s shot to try to lesson allergies and the suffering of that sort of stuff....also if in your area you can find pout about sprays on farm fields and commercial property weed spraying ...you may find those are direct correlation to heavier symptom bouts!!
@@willow-7794 those are excellent suggestions... I'll definitely give it a shot this year! Thanks so much!

Rosemary is good for memory just smelling it. Thank you so much!
That I did not know! Thanks for sharing!
I love rosemary and I use it in a number of dishes, but the most important is when I make a leg of lamb, it’s exquisite!!
Thank you for this video. It’s very clear and easy to follow! I spent a pleasant time this afternoon doing exactly what you demonstrated. I just now put my two, clear glasses of rosemary sprigs-in-water on a safe windowsill, along with a little file card with dates on it that I will need to change the water and watch for roots. It’s amazing how happy doing this this simple little thing has made me. But then, gardening projects seem to have that effect on one, don’t they!
So awesome Jayne! Glad to hear that! I love these little easy projects where its not hours and hours of labor.....simple, fun, and then rewarding in the end!
Gardening makes me so happy too! :)
I love my Rosemary bush. It is blooming right now, in Texas in October. I use it in pizza dough, over roast pork and lamb. Thanks for the propagation tips. Going out right now to do it.
Thanks for your easy propagation of Rosemary.
As I was wanting to make a small hedge of rosemary in my garden.
I will try and strike some cuttings in preparation for this hedge.
That I am planning for my garden.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts and expertise. I will most definitely try this.
Thank you so much for your informative video, especially for not pushing any products. Every video I have come across they push you to spend money here and there. I want something as natural and inexpensive as possible.

Great video...lovely to find you...I am growing hedges on my lot to deter the rats in the area and my favourite use of rosemary is a Rosemary wheat loaf...best bread ever...fragrant and delicious...the house smells magnificent when cooking it 👌🥂
Rosemary as a hedge.... Brilliant! I love it!

Cheers Narcisa, thanks for watching! :-)
Clear instructions, keep it coming!
Thanks Meinard! I do have a whole herb series coming out to compliment this video. Thanks for watching, have a great summer!
Easy enough, thanks for sharing. And good point about the rooting hormone. Survival of the fittest is a good thing for your cuttings
Our rosemary always seems to croak over the winter - but I've never tried to heavily mulch them.
Whereabouts do you live? How cold are the winters?
We're in NH. We see a typical 0 for a low, with a few days down to -15 here and there.
Snow cover probably has a lot to do with it. If there's a lot of snow when it gets cold, the plants do ok. We had brutal cold snap 2 years ago (2 weeks sub-zero) but we had bare ground. It killed our magnolia (my favorite tree in the yard) and a bunch of other things that were well established
Yeah, wonder if they get either smothered out, or even dried out? Interesting stuff. I wonder if different varieties behave differently as well.
Oh, those temps were F, not C... I forgot you're one of our northern friends :) I'm going to try to look for a more cold hardy variety next time. The snow is a great insulator, and without it I think the roots freeze up a little too solid. Also, you're likely right - the soil would be exposed to the wind, and probably dries out more without snow, too.
Oak Knob Farm ha ha, yeah, it's all Celsius and metric up here! I would think though, that the varieties for sale in your area, even from the big box stores, would be MEANT for your area. Better yet though, hook up with a local colleague that has a thriving specimen, and ask for a cutting or two!
Regrowing Lettuce is fun and easy. A cool indoor project to do with kids! czcams.com/video/vra7ymw_5Io/video.html
Thank you so much for the explanation of growing rosemary. I'll be trying your method.
Rosemary cooked with carmelized onions on pizza, or rosemary olive oil soughdough bread are two of my favorites.
On pizza??! That sounds amazing! Great idea Nancy!
Potatoes with rosemary and garlic from the oven.The classic.Yummy.

Hi Jeff, great video on how to do Rosemary cuttings, thanks for sharing and take care 🙂
Hey, thanks so much Christine! Best of luck with yours.
I really like your style of crafting rosemary planting techniques 👍💖💖✌️
🍃I positively love rosemary🌿
I agree Alice! How can you not?! Although I don't eat it too much in the summer.... Come fall there's Rosemary in EVERYTHING!
Thank for the tips on rosemary.
Thanks Cleo! I just uploaded a video along the same vein for propagating raspberries!
A true no B S professional . Thank U . Much appreciated .
Very informative. Thank you. I just purchased a rosemary plant and put it in the garden. I might move it now that it takes over. Good pleasant host.
Thanks so much Leslie! Best of luck with your new Rosemary! Watch out, they can be invasive! :)
I wish I would have seen this video a month ago. I started rosemary from seed and ended up with 5 viable seedlings out of 500 seeds. I went to Home Depot for something else just recently and found a beautiful rosemary plant for $3.48....it's doing really well after being transplanted a week ago, while my seedlings are healthy, but growing soooo slowly. I may see if I can find another deal on a rosemary plant and try what you explain in the video. I love rosemary...I use it for cooking and just love the smell in a herb mixture simmering on the kitchen stove. Once again, you have shared useful information in a straight forward and easily understood way. Appreciate your videos. P.S. I'd kill for your rosemary bushes.....
Thanks buddy! Yes, very easy to grow from cuttings once it roots. Remember, it'll grow HUGE if given the chance. If you don't want it taking over your yard, keep it in a container or pot! 🍅🎋🌶🍓🍈🌱🍆
I just watched this and discovered you’re helpful videos on CZcams! Thanks for sharing you’re knowledge.. could you do a video on rooting from stem a hydrangea I just love those plants!!
Thanks Scheryl! We have a huge blue on in our front yard. I'll definitely take some cuttings from it this spring! Cheers.
Thank you so much for this, very informative.
Than k you do much I buy this plant at least 2 or 3 a yr I can grow outside but inside I don't do so well but I will try to grow from my new one I bought this spring. Gardening relaxes me plus I love growing my own food z God bless
Yeah, I've never been successful growing Rosemary inside. It's almost like a small tree here... I feel like it doesn't like stagnant air or something!
Also Tammy, be aware that Rosemary can be a noxious weed. I always try to grow it in pots because it can quickly take over your garden. I always treat Rosemary like it's a little hedge plant!
Rosemary is my favourite herb after basil. It goes very well with red meat.
NOTHING beats basil....I could eat pesto on anything!!
Great info, thank you for taking time to share.
Thanks Charles, and thanks for watching!
Thank you for the lesson. I just finished and put it in the kitchen.
Great information. I have some very old plants. I will try to renew the old plants. Thank you for sharing. God bless America.
Right on Jim. I do the same. Every few years I'll do some cuttings and restart the bushes around the yard! Cheers man!
Thanks for a straightforward tutorial video.
Thanks for watching MD! Hope you are having a great gardening summer in 2019!!
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms, so far, the weather has been excellent, not too warm. Have had good success with the pumpkin, tomatoes, passionfruit, and flowering plants :)
@@marlonb.8243 pumpkins! Ha ha awesome, I'm not the only one that grows them out of season!
I grow rosemary because it is a very versatile herb and it can be used in many different ways. I use it green or dry for tea, salads, almost everything
I agree, its one of the best! Cheers!

Thanks for sharing this video! It's very helpful.
Thanks for watching Marilyn! I have a whole herb series of videos coming out as summer winds down!
Very good at giving instructions. I love it.
Hey thanks, appreciate the kind words! :-)
Thanks so much, I have been trying to root this for years, I have been using tap water, I think that is my problem. Thank you.
What water is the best?
No problem Gabbi! You can also try scratching away a bit of the bark on the stems... Expose that inner layer. That often helps to stimulate roots. If you're propagating in water, you can use IBA rooting powder as a last resort. If you are doing it directly in soil, mix in some alfalfa meal into the soil as it contains natural rooting hormones! Best of luck, report back your success!
@@jordaniskatsakis2442 I find pond water, slightly acidic (pH = 6ish) to be the best. After that, straight rain water is awesome. And then after that, tap water that has been allowed to sit for a couple of days. Best of luck!
Thanks 👍 Great Information.. I am off to pot plant some Rosemary
Awesome Carolyn, best of luck!
