About this plant

Rosemary, azir in the Moroccan countryside, grows wild from the Oriental to the Middle Atlas. Its dark green needles, silvered underneath, release their scent at the slightest brush; its pale blue flowers appear from late winter and feed the bees.

As an edging, a ground cover trailing over a low wall or a clipped globe in a terracotta pot, it structures dry gardens and flavours the kitchen. It needs neither feed nor watering once established.

An essential of the Mediterranean garden, to plant beneath olive trees.

Care

Caring for your plant

  • Watering

    Water only in pots, when the soil is dry: every ten days in summer. In the ground, rain is enough after the first year.

  • Light

    Full sun, no exceptions. That is where it concentrates its essential oils.

  • Feeding

    None. Poor, drained soil gives denser, more fragrant foliage.

  • Temperature

    Hardy to −12 °C and perfectly comfortable at 45 °C. It fears only standing moisture in winter.

  • No watering needed once established
  • Scent, flowers and bees from late winter
  • Can be picked year-round for the kitchen
