Organic Spice Island Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis 'Spice Island') is a premier culinary selection bred specifically for its intense flavor and high essential oil content. This variety features a dense, upright habit with dark green, needle-like foliage that stays lush and fragrant year-round. It is widely considered one of the best varieties for drying, as it retains its pungent, spicy aroma and deep color far better than other rosemary types.

As a robust member of the Rosmarinus genus, 'Spice Island' is a versatile addition to any herb garden or sunny landscape. In addition to its culinary uses in roasts, stews, and breads, it produces a lovely display of pale blue flowers that attract pollinators. It is exceptionally drought-tolerant once established and thrives in the heat of summer. Why you’ll love it: Superior culinary flavor, excellent for drying, and a tidy upright growth habit that makes a beautiful aromatic accent in the garden.

This healthy 4" live edible plant thrives in full sun and is a low-maintenance choice for gardeners and cooks alike.
