Creeping Rosemary, Prostrate Rosemary

Rosmarinus prostratus, commonly called Prostrate Rosemary, is a hardy, low-growing shrub with aromatic green foliage and masses of blue flowers from late winter through spring.

Hardy and drought-tolerant once established, it thrives in sunny, well-drained sites across New Zealand.
