Rosemary is a hardy, fragrant herb that’s relatively easy to care for once established. Here’s a complete guide:

🌞 Light

  • Indoors, place rosemary near a south-facing window or use a grow light.

💧 Water

  • Let the top 1–2 inches of soil dry out between waterings.

  • Avoid overwatering; rosemary dislikes soggy soil and can develop root rot.

  • Water deeply but infrequently — about once a week in warm months, less in winter.

🌿 Soil

  • Use well-draining soil, such as a cactus mix or sandy loam.

  • A pH of 6.0–7.5 is ideal.

  • Ensure pots have drainage holes.

🌡️ Temperature & Humidity

  • Prefers 60–75°F (15–24°C).

  • Average indoor humidity is fine; too much moisture in the air can cause mildew.

✂️ Pruning

  • Trim regularly to encourage bushy growth and prevent it from becoming woody.

  • Prune after flowering or lightly throughout the growing season.

🌸 Feeding

  • Fertilize sparingly — once a month during spring and summer with a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half strength.

  • Avoid heavy feeding in fall and winter.

🪴 Repotting 

  • Repot every 2–3 years in fresh, well-draining soil.
