Holiday Salem Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis 'Salem') is an elegant herb celebrated for its rich fragrance and flavorful, deep green foliage. Its upright, formal shape grows up to 3 feet tall and 2 feet wide, making it ideal for both culinary and decorative uses. Delicate blue-violet flowers emerge in winter through early spring, adding seasonal charm and attracting beneficial pollinators. Originally cultivated in Salem, North Carolina, this rosemary thrives in humid climates better than most traditional varieties, ensuring robust, year-round growth in gardens from zones 7 through 9.
Unlike artificial holiday decorations, living Holiday Salem Rosemary brings a touch of nature to your home. Its aromatic foliage naturally perfumes indoor spaces, creating a festive, welcoming atmosphere that artificial décor can't match. Given as a thoughtful gift, this rosemary can be planted outdoors in spring, providing fresh culinary herbs for years to come. Enjoy the dual satisfaction of using sustainable holiday decor and growing a flavorful herb through winter.
Holiday Salem Rosemary Plant Care
Place your Salem Rosemary near a bright, sunny window that provides at least six hours of direct sunlight daily, or supplement with artificial grow lights. Allow the top inch of soil to dry slightly between waterings; rosemary thrives best with slightly dry conditions, and excess moisture can harm its roots. Maintain good air circulation and moderate humidity levels.
Transition your Salem Rosemary outdoors after the last frost, gradually acclimating it to outside conditions over one to two weeks. Plant it in well-draining, sandy soil mixed with organic compost, ensuring it receives full sun throughout the growing season. Water regularly at first, then reduce watering frequency once established, allowing the soil to dry out between soakings. With minimal maintenance, your rosemary will continue providing culinary flavor and ornamental beauty season after season.

We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die.

The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability).

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
