About this Plant
Organic Gorizia Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis 'Gorizia') is a gourmet culinary selection famous for its oversized, broad leaves and robust flavor. Named after the town in Italy where it was discovered, this variety features leaves that are twice as large as standard rosemary, held on exceptionally thick, straight stems. In spring, it produces charming light blue flowers that contrast beautifully with the lush, dark green needles.
As a vigorous member of the Rosmarinus genus, 'Gorizia' is highly sought after by chefs for its high oil content and spicy, gingery aroma. Its stiff, upright stems make the perfect "barbecue skewers" for grilling, infusing food with flavor from the inside out. It is an attractive, upright shrub that makes an excellent fragrant hedge or focal point in the herb garden. Why you’ll love it: Extra-large culinary leaves, powerful aromatic scent, and a fast-growing, upright habit that is both ornamental and delicious.
This healthy 4" live edible plant thrives in full sun and requires well-drained soil and moderate watering.
