rooting for rosemary
Well, you’ve got to root for something, right?
I’m rooting for the success of my first ever rosemary rooting experience. You may laugh, but I took a trip to Pickity Place, one of my very favorite New Hampshire restaurants, back in February. And gigantic sprigs of fresh rosemary were on my yummy main dish. Instead of eating them, I brought the sprigs home and stuck them in water. Yep, I did that.
See the roots? It's working!
It has taken a while, but there are definitely good roots growing on my rosemary (pay no attention to my failed thyme rooting attempt on the right). The next step is to transplant my rosemary to a pot and see if it will continue to thrive and grow.
Rosemary is a wonderful, fragrant, delicious herb. And it’s very hard to grow from seed. So I’ll take my doggie bag of rosemary and do my very best.
