Rosemary seeds

#14705890 - 07/02/11 10:51 AM (15 years, 4 months ago)

Rosemary is by far my favorite herb. However, I can't get any seeds to sprout. I have gotten numerous seeds from numerous suppliers, and have attempted growing them in every way. I have never had a seed sprout. I only have one plant, and I would like to have more. I really don't want to buy another plant, since it's a waste of money. Has anyone here been able to grow rosemary from seed? Are there any special methods?

rosemary seeds are notoriously difficult to germinate and the seed is rarely
going to produce something like the parent, your best bet for propagation is
cuttings... I've astounded people by doing it with tomatoes, it's one fot he
easiest plants to root from cuttings

I try and find the largest, healthiest plant at a nursery, snip about a
2-3 inch cutting from the soft, new growth of an established plant.
strip the leaves from the bottom inch and dip that tip into a rooting
hormone. Rooting hormones can be found in any garden center under the name
Rootone and Bontone

Carefully place the dipped end into a container of dampened, sterile seed
starting mix. I use a pencil as a dibble and poke my hole with it because
it's keeps me from rubbing the rooting hormone off. place the container in
a warm spot with indirect sunlight. mist the cuttings daily and make sure
the soil does not dry out. in about 2-3 weeks, test for root growth by
very gently tugging on the cuttings, you'll know the ones that havent
survived by the end of 3 weeks

once rooted, transplant into 3-4 inch diameter pots, give them a week or
so to deal with transplant shock and pinch off the very top of the cutting
to encourage it to develop branches.

you can overwinter it indoors and start again in the early spring
