Hmmm, I'll remember that. I have a huge bay tree and I dry a sprig off that when I need some leaves - smells gorgeous.

The dreaded Rosemary Beetle...
..one of my photos (24th June 09) shows where my dogs caught two "giant Rosemary Beetles" which had arrived, allegedly, in a packet of seeds from Paul. LOL.

Lovely in leg of lamb, make slits with sharp knife insert leaves yummy!!!! they like the same conditions as lavenders Dawn as they are from the Med.

That's what worries me Dotty - I dont know if it will like my conditions ... a bit cool and damp here. We'll see, it may have to have some grit

Good luck with it Dawn.

Maybe it will be OK if it gets lots of sun ...... a bit like me :-)

Have you got Clay Soil Da? I have, so i had to put loads of grit in the hole
and mixed it with my own Compost, and Bonemeal....Its not doing
too bad. They do prefer Well drained Soil and Full sun. Yours looks
quite happy. : -))))

Hello Free, thanks for the advice, yes we have clay :-( This is still a young plant so I could always re-site it with lots of grit if need be, if it failing, although I must check its come through this awful Winter.
