Salvia Rosmarinus ‘Prostratus’ (Prostrate Rosemary)

Salvia Rosmarinus ‘Prostratus’ (Prostrate Rosemary) is a versatile, low-growing evergreen herb prized for its aromatic foliage, cascading growth habit, and culinary uses. Its fine, needle-like dark green leaves release a distinctive rosemary fragrance when brushed, while delicate blue to lavender-blue flowers add seasonal colour and attract bees and other pollinators. With its spreading habit, Prostrate Rosemary is ideal for cascading over retaining walls, softening garden edges, covering sunny slopes, or growing in pots and raised planters.

Hardy, drought-tolerant once established, and relatively low-maintenance, Prostrate Rosemary is an excellent choice for gardeners seeking a plant that combines ornamental beauty with practical benefits. Its fragrant leaves can be harvested for cooking, adding flavour to roasted vegetables, meats, and other dishes. Thriving in full sun and well-drained soil, this Mediterranean herb is well suited to herb gardens, rockeries, borders, coastal landscapes, and water-wise gardens, providing year-round greenery, fragrance, and garden appeal.
