Planting / Sowing

Sow seed on the surface of a fine seed-raising mix, as light is required for germination. Do not cover the seed. Mist gently to keep the surface moist and cover the tray with a clear lid or plastic to maintain humidity until germination. Place in a warm, bright position out of direct afternoon sun. Transplant seedlings once large enough to handle into a sheltered, sunny position with well-drained soil. Once established, rosemary is drought tolerant and thrives in full sun.

Due to quarantine restrictions, TAS has an 800g limit per each seed variety and WA has a 10,000 seeds limit per variety.
