Rosemary
(Rosmarinus officinalis)** A fragrant, sun-loving evergreen herb with needle-like leaves and woody stems, rosemary thrives in dry, well-drained soil. Native to the Mediterranean, it’s a culinary star (think roasted meats, breads) and a symbol of remembrance. Drought-tolerant and hardy, it blooms with tiny blue-purple flowers, attracting pollinators. Bonus: Its piney aroma sharpens focus—legend says it strengthens memory! Perfect for gardens, pots, or as a resilient, aromatic houseplant.
