Rosemary

Rosemary is a versatile and aromatic Mediterranean herb that has been cherished for centuries by cultures spanning from ancient Greece and Rome to modern-day kitchens all around the world.  Rosemary is a hardy and evergreen shrub that typically grows upright with woody stems and reaches a height of 2 to 4 feet.  Plants can be trained to develop a bushy compact form, making them ideal for both garden beds and container gardening, and their attractive, dark green, needle-like leaves with silvery-white undersides add an intriguing texture and aroma to any landscape. In the kitchen, rosemary is a versatile herb with an earthy, piney aroma that compliments dishes like roasted meats, potatoes, and grilled vegetables.  A staple in both French and Italian cooking, this herb is also popular for infusing oils and vinegars and for making irresistible, savory rolls, focaccia, and biscuits. The fragrant leaves are also reported to contain antioxidants and compounds that support memory and digestion
