Rosmarinus officinalis ‘Repens’ or ‘Trailing Rosemary’ is a drought tolerant, fragrant, cascading variation on the classic Mediterranean rosemary.
Also known as Prostrate Rosemary, this variety covers the ground in ripples and undulations but is at its best when cascading over a wall or a rocky slope.
The leaves are smaller than common Rosemary but smell just as delicious.
Small blue flowers appear in the spring in Central to Northern France. If you are a lucky one and live in the South, the flowering can begin as early as February.
TIP: Shearing the top encourages the side branches to spread.
EXTRA TIP: Rosemary really despises sitting in soggy soil so ensure that your soil is sandy, poor, and very well draining.
The Tale
The name Rosmarinus comes from the Latin ros maris or ‘dew of the sea’.
It was later called Rose of Mary or rosemary in honor of the Virgin Mary.
The plant itself has historically been associated with remembrance, memory, and fidelity.
In Roman times, students wore springs of rosemary in their hair so that they would better remember the lessons that they learned at school.
In Shakespeare’s Hamlet, Ophelia says, :‘There’s rosemary, that’s for remembrance, pray you love, remember.’
So if ever you want to offer the gift of memory, it is here!
