Rosemary Planting and Care Guide

Quick Facts About Rosemary

Rosemary herb plants are very attractive to beneficial insects and attract pollinators to the garden. They can be shaped and manicured to promote a more attractive, compact shape, and in addition to their beauty in the garden, Rosemary herbs are have both medicinal and culinary uses.

Planting Time

Rosemary seeds can be started indoors, 6 - 8 weeks prior to the end of frost season. Or, directly in the garden while a few frosts are still expected (cold stratification is beneficial).

Planting Location

Rosemary plants thrive in full sun and loamy, well-draining soil. The plants prefer acidic soil. Avoid soils that hold moisture and heavy clay soils.

How to Plant Rosemary

  • Rosemary seed can be soaked over night and added to dampened soil and placed in the refrigerator prior to planting
  • After 3 - 4 weeks of cold, start the seeds in starter trays indoors
  • These herb seeds need light for germination
  • Keep the trays moist and warm for germination
  • Transplant out after frost danger has passed
  • Or, directly sow in the garden prior to the end of frost season
  • Work the garden soil 6 - 8 inches
  • Add compost to the soil
  • Gently press the seeds into the soil but do not cover
  • Keep moist for germination

Care And Maintenance

  • Trimming Rosemary plants encourages bushier growth
  • For harvest, snip sprigs at any time
  • Best flavor and fragrance is prior to blooming
  • Sprigs can be used fresh, frozen or dried
  • Rosemary plants can be brought in during the winter
  • If potted, plan on re-potting every year due to the plant easily getting root bound

    ***At the moment, all Gardenizi's products are typically shipped from one of our overseas facilities, so please allow up to 3-4 weeks to receive your purchase(s), though we've been seeing much quicker shipping times recently. Shipping time is typically dependent on how long customs takes, which can vary from country to country.

This usually takes between 2-7 days on average, although it can take as long as 8-12 days. ***

    How Much Seed Do I Need?

    How to Calculate Square Footage And Purchase the Right Amount of Wildflower Seed In 3 Easy Steps

    Before purchasing wildflower seeds to plant your meadow, calculate the square footage of your meadow or garden bed. This guide will walk you through the 3 easy steps, so that you'll know how much seed you need!

    1. Measure

    For Squares or Rectangles: measure the length and width of the space where you want to plant. 

    For Circles: find the radius by measuring the widest part of your planting space and divide by 2.

    2. Calculate Square Footage

    For Squares or Rectangles:  length (in feet)  x  width (in feet) = square feet

    For example, a garden that measures 50 feet x 30 feet = 1500 sq. ft.

     

    For Circles:  3.14  x radius (in feet) x  radius   = square feet

    For example, a circular garden that is 20 feet across has a radius of 10 feet. 10 x 10 x 3.14 = 314 sq. ft.

    (The mathematical formula for the area of a circle is Π · r2 - the Π symbol is pronounced Pi and represents approximately 3.142, and r2 stands for radius squared.)

    3. Find How Much Seed You Need

    The amount of seed you should plant depends on the flower display you want. We typically recommend planting on the higher side for a lush meadow. Plant on the lower side for a more scattered look. 

    For Individual Species: The recommended rates vary greatly from species to species. Check the product page, or contact us with questions.

    For Wildflower Mixes: Reference the table below.

    This Much Seed Covers... This Much Square Footage
    1/4 lb 250 - 500 sq. ft.
    1/2 lb 500 - 1,000 sq. ft.
    1 lb 1,000 - 2,000 sq. ft.
    5 lbs 5,000 - 10,000 sq. ft.
    10 lbs 10,000 - 25,000 sq. ft.
    Acreage
    • 1 Acre = 43,000 sq.ft.
    • 1/2 Acre = 21,500 sq. ft.
    • 1/4 Acre = 10,750 sq.ft.
    • 1/10 Acre = 4,300 sq. ft.

    Tips For Larger Plantings: If you have a large site, from 1/2 acre to several acres, your planting rate may be affected by land conditions. If you have heavy weeds on the site now, some erosion, generally poor soil, or other land problems, additional seed is usually the most economical solution, since installation of a large planting usually costs more than the seed itself. If your site does have these problems and you want full coverage, use 1 pound per 1000 sq. ft.
