Holiday Prostrate Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis 'Prostratus') features gracefully cascading stems covered in rich, aromatic, deep-green foliage, making it an excellent decorative accent for your home or garden. Soft lavender-blue flowers bloom abundantly from late winter through early spring, providing delicate seasonal color just when it's needed most. Reaching up to 2 feet tall and spreading approximately 4 feet wide, this trailing rosemary is ideal for containers, hanging baskets, or retaining walls. Among rosemary varieties, 'Prostratus' stands out with its spreading habit, aromatic fragrance, and culinary value, enriching your cooking and your holiday décor.
Opting for live Holiday Prostrate Rosemary instead of artificial decor offers genuine freshness, enhancing indoor spaces with a delightful herbal aroma. This herb is a thoughtful gift for cooking enthusiasts, bringing lasting value as recipients can transplant it outdoors come springtime. Unlike disposable decorations, live rosemary is sustainable, providing an eco-conscious alternative that brightens your home naturally. Its presence indoors during winter adds both beauty and function, creating a memorable and aromatic holiday atmosphere.
Holiday Prostrate Rosemary Care
Indoors, position your Prostrate Rosemary in a location receiving at least six hours of direct sunlight daily or supplement with full-spectrum LED lights for optimal growth. Water moderately when the soil surface dries slightly, taking care not to oversaturate, as rosemary prefers drier conditions. Provide good airflow and moderate humidity levels.
Once the threat of frost passes, transition your rosemary outdoors by gradually acclimating it to outdoor conditions over a week or two. Select a sunny, well-draining location, ideally with sandy or rocky soil, to encourage vigorous and healthy growth. Water regularly upon planting, gradually reducing the frequency once established, as this variety thrives with minimal moisture. Prune lightly after flowering to maintain shape, stimulate new growth, and ensure continued aromatic beauty throughout the growing season.
