Notes
'Barbecue' rosemary (Salvia rosmarinus 'Barbecue') is an herb for food gardens, containers, borders, and xeriscape. It is hardy to USDA zone 8, or down to 10°F (-12°C). This plant likes full or part sun and dry to moist, loamy soil. Its arching, evergreen stems are fragrant and tolerate drought and salt. Deer rarely make it their first choice. Bees, butterflies, hummingbirds, and birds visit it.
Pairs well with Hidcote lavender, Thyme, and Society garlic.
