We have Giant Rosemary bushes in our backyard. Honestly, when I took them out of their pots and planted them in the ground I had no idea how large they would get.
While we were trying to figure out what type of shrubs we wanted to surround our patio my husband came up with a brilliant idea, plant rosemary as our shrubbery.
The rosemary grows the same as other shrubs and can be shaped the same. It smells amazing, can be used for cooking, AND will keep the mosquitos at bay!
It's really easy to get the cuttings going. All you need is sand, Perlite (organic) and peat moss. Mix equal parts, fill a small container leaving 1/4 at the top free. Soak the pot with the mixture in warm water then let drain for an hour before planting the cuttings in them. Keep them watered. Wait 4-6 weeks for the cutting to root and then plant them where they will permanently placed.
What a great, delicious, way to plant shrubbery around the house!!
