Tuscan Blue Rosemary is a multipurpose plant. Tiny blue blooms grow along the tall stems from May through midsummer, making this beauty a lovely addition to a bed or mass planting. This plant is also right at home in an herb garden. Pick the fragrant leaves for use in savory recipes. The needle-like foliage can be used fresh or dried.
Bright blue flowers line the tall stems spring through midsummer. Harvest the needle-like leaves at any time during the growing season. Space the low maintenance plants at least 2 to 3 feet apart. The upright growth habit allows you to plant closer together than other rosemary plants.
