🌿 Growing Rosemary from a Cutting (Sprig)

1. Select a cutting: Take a 4-6 inch (10-15 cm) long, semi-woody sprig from a healthy rosemary plant.
2. Cut and prepare: Make a clean cut below a leaf node, remove the lower leaves, and dip the cutting in rooting hormone (optional).
3. Plant: Insert the cutting 2-3 inches (5-7 cm) deep into well-draining soil.
4. Create humidity: Cover the cutting with a plastic bag to keep it moist.
5. Place in indirect light: Place the plant in a warm, indirectly lit spot.
6. Water: Keep the soil moist but not soggy; roots should form in 4-6 weeks.
7. Transplant: Once rooted, move the plant to a larger pot (20-30 cm).

🌱 Growing Rosemary from Seeds

1. Prepare the tray: Fill a seed tray or small pots with a draining potting mix.
2. Sow the seeds: Press the seeds lightly into the surface and cover with a thin layer of potting mix.
3. Cover and Mist: Mist the soil and cover with plastic wrap.
4. Light and Heat: Place the tray in a warm area with indirect sunlight.
5. Watering: Mist regularly to keep the soil moist. Seeds will germinate in 2-4 weeks.
6. Transplant: Move the seedlings to pots when they have 2-3 sets of leaves.

🌞 Care Tips for Both Methods

• Sunlight: 6-8 hours of direct sunlight per day.
• Watering: Let the top inch of soil dry out between waterings.
• Pruning: Prune regularly to encourage thicker growth.
• Soil: Use well-draining soil.
