Salvia rosmarinus, commonly known as Rosemary (previously Rosmarinus officinalis), is a quintessential element of any Mediterranean-style garden. This captivating evergreen shrub boasts aromatic, needle-like leaves and charming clusters of pale blue to white flowers, flourishing predominantly in winter and spring in hardiness zones 8-11. Rosemary's allure extends beyond its visual appeal; its fragrant foliage serves as a natural insect repellent while enticing beneficial pollinators like bees and butterflies. Historically steeped in symbolism and celebrated for its myriad of uses, Rosemary is cherished for its culinary, medicinal, and cultural significance. Its robust, earthy flavor complements a variety of dishes, particularly in Mediterranean cuisines, and its essential oil is prized in aromatherapy. Rosemary thrives in well-draining soil under full sunlight and can grow as a striking ornamental border or a natural, creeping ground cover. Its tolerance to drought and pests makes it an effortless yet versatile addition to any garden landscape.
