Looking for something a little different to add to your herb garden? BBQ rosemary is an excellent choice. You will recognise traditional, fragrant and vaguely sweet Rosemary flavour but this is coupled with more than a hint of woodsmoke. This fantastic plant is easy to grow but will enjoy being planted in a sunny, free draining position. Perfect for growing in a container next to the kitchen door or even better, next to your BBQ.
