Rosemary Pointe du Raz

A low spreading, mat forming aromatic shrub with grey-green green leaves and deep blue flowers in May and June. Similar to 'Prostratus' but with darker blue flowers. Can be cut for using in cooking. Needs full sun and very well drained soil to do well. Dislikes excessive winter wet. Best to cut back regularly in spring to retain a bushy shape and prevent the plant becoming leggy. Tolerates salt very well.
