Start Rosemary seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before the last frost in your area. Follow the seed depth and spacing guidelines indicated below. Once all danger of frost has passed, seedlings should be hardened off before planting into their growing location. Seedlings should be transplanted according to the plant spacing directions below. Pick a location sheltered from the wind and receives at least 6 hours of sun per day. Regularly monitor your plants and ensure that the soil remains moist, but not soggy while they establish themselves in their new environment.

Suggestions
Growing Suggestions:
- Rosemary should be planted in fast-draining soil as it does not tolerate being constantly wet. Allow the soil to dry out between waterings.
- Rosemary is an evergreen plant that can be harvested at any time. However, it's recommended to pick young stems and leaves for the freshest taste. The older tips are best used for infusing things with flavor or scent rather than eating. While harvesting, snip off the stems, but make sure to maintain an attractive shape of the plant. Avoid harvesting more than a third of the rosemary at any one time.
