Rosemary starting to flower

That is early Kate ! I love Rosemary shrubs.

Yes, such a lovely shrub and pretty flowers too. A really cheering sight during this horrible cold, wet, windy spell.

Thanks Rose and Karen, I do enjoy them in the garden. Scent, colour and longevity!

Such a pretty flower to it hope mine gets a flower like this.

Thanks Thrup. I’ve a few rosemary shrubs in the bund / hill. This is the second year they have started flowering pretty early. Mild season?

Perhaps the Bund Hill has it's own little micro climate too.

...and good drainage.

You’re both probably right, Thrup and Karen. Definitely good drainage!

Funny how Rosemary and others thrive better in poor soil and sunny places..

3pence it’s their Mediterranean background.......most of the new housing estates around here plant rosemary hedges, they grow so well and smell good too!

Yes I had nt thought of that thank you Dottydaisy . The estates must smell lovely around by you.

They do indeed.....
