Thanks to your helpful information, I'm going to pick up some this week. <BR/><BR/>I'll probably start them out in pots until they become more established, and eventually plant them in the ground around my screened in porch.<BR/><BR/>Thanks again!Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05747634956150858701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4942145457163862596.post-8425889028119679632009-02-25T15:24:00.000-05:002009-02-25T15:24:00.000-05:00Mike, I don't know the variety, but I'm pretty sur...Mike, I don't know the variety, but I'm pretty sure I bought it as a small plant at either The Home Depot or WalMart and that it came from Bonnie's (grower) in Alabama. It's in the ground,and I don't really do anything for it (poor thing!) other than removing an occasional dead branch.<BR/><BR/>I'm in 7b also; your Rosemary should do well in Roswell. Much success!Lya Soranohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16677200360169732962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4942145457163862596.post-27774375340363555052009-02-10T21:04:00.000-05:002009-02-10T21:04:00.000-05:00What a beautiful specimen.

I hope you don’t mind if I ask a few questions. <BR/><BR/>Do you happen to know the actual name of the plant? I see that Walter recommends a couple varieties, Arp and Athens Blue Spires, for cold hardiness. <BR/><BR/>Do you grow your rosemary in a pot or in the ground? I can’t tell from the picture. I would like to grow it in the ground, but I live in Roswell, GA (zone 7b, I think) and I’m not sure how well it would do.<BR/><BR/>I would love to become a master gardener someday. You should be very proud of your accomplishment!<BR/><BR/>Thanks for sharing.<BR/>-MikeMikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05747634956150858701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4942145457163862596.post-70930034293520381452009-02-10T17:19:00.000-05:002009-02-10T17:19:00.000-05:00Lya, This Rosemary pic is awesome!
