Rosemary 'Primley Blue'
Rosemary 'Primley Blue' is a popular perennial herb, famously prized for its low, spreading growth habit and its masses of bright blue flowers. The primary part used for its culinary value is its aromatic, needle-like leaves, which provide a classic, robust, and piney rosemary flavour essential for seasoning roasted foods and breads. However, its edibility doesn't stop there; the attractive, bright blue flowers are also edible and make a beautiful, fragrant garnish for salads and drinks.
When it comes to planting and maintenance, this is an easy-to-grow, spreading evergreen shrub, but it has very specific needs. It is extremely fussy about its light conditions and must have a location in full, direct sun to flower profusely. The main requirement for it to grow well is providing it with soil that is exceptionally well-drained, as it strongly dislikes "wet feet" and is very drought-tolerant once established. As an added benefit to the garden, its prolific blue flowers are known to be a major favourite of bees.
Please Note: When purchasing plants please consider that each live item is unique and may therefore differ from the images shown, which are for illustration purposes only - The plant will be supplied in a growers pot.
