rosemary plant gift
A rosemary plant gift is the perfect solution for anyone searching for a thoughtful, lasting present that brings together beauty, fragrance, and practicality. Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis) is renowned for its vibrant evergreen foliage, gentle aroma, and versatility—making it an ideal choice for birthdays, holidays, housewarmings, or special occasions. Whether your recipient loves cooking, gardening, or simply appreciates attractive, easy-care plants, gifting a rosemary plant will delight them for years to come. At our New Zealand nursery, we offer a range of rosemary varieties, each with unique flavour profiles, growth habits, and ornamental features to suit every gifting need.
Rosmarinus prostratus (Creeping 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. Its trailing habit makes it perfect for cascading over walls, covering banks, or spilling from pots. Hardy and drought-tolerant once established, it thrives in sunny, well-drained sites across New Zealand. Combining ornamental appeal with culinary use, Prostrate Rosemary is a versatile, low-maintenance choice for gardens and landscaping.
Rosmarinus 'Pink Remembrance' (Pink Rosemary)
Rosmarinus 'Pink Remembrance', commonly known as Pink Rosemary, is a mid-sized, evergreen shrub that features masses of petite, pink flowers in spring, which are held amidst the small and aromatic, mid-green leaves. It grows with an erect and rounded shape to about 60 cm tall and 1 m wide. Rosmarinus 'Pink Remembrance' is ideal for adding to a mixed planting, mass planting as a groundcover, maintaining in a container, or including in the herb garden. It is often used in Mediterranean and cottage gardens, and the foliage is perfect for cooking and garnishes.
