Rosemary (rosmarinus officinalis) is a tough little evergreen shrub with needle-like leaves that pack a punch in the aroma department. Its soft blue flowers make it a bee magnet in the spring. It’s super easy to grow, has minimal water needs, and doesn’t attract pests.
It is a symbol of remembrance and friendship, and you’ll often see wedding couples carrying it as a token of love and loyalty. The name “rosemary” comes from the Latin words ros (meaning dew) and marinus (meaning sea)—and it’s sometimes called “Sea Dew.” It originally grew wild among the misty hills by the Mediterranean Sea.
Whether fresh or dried, rosemary is great in so many dishes. Both flowers and leaves have been used in traditional medicine. It’s also handy for making potpourri, adding a fresh scent to beauty products, and even in disinfectants. Rumor has it rosemary can boost memory and was once used to treat gout.
