#ProPlantTips For Care
Herbs are easy-care! They just require full sun outdoors, or bright indirect light when indoors. Plant in a location that has well-drained soil. Water regularly while they first establish, but don't overwater to keep them pumping out the aromatic greenery all summer long. Rosemary can tolerate arid conditions once established and prefers soil on the drier side. Provide an enriched site with good drainage (especially container plants!) and mulch to keep the roots cool.
To use, just trim off what you need for fresh and pinch-back leggy bits to encourage branching. Before frost, container plants can be brought in for the winter in cold hardiness zones, or harvest your plants near the base of the plant. Wash and hang them to dry, so you can use your Herbs all winter! Tie up in loose bundles in good air circulation to dry, or use a dehydrator, or low-temperature oven until crumbly. Store in sealed jars with a label and a date - and enjoy!
- Full Sun or Bright Indoor Light
- Enriched Well-Drained Soil
- Moderate But Regular Moisture
- Pinch Back to Encourage Branching
- Great Annual Herbs or Perennial in Mild Winter Climates
