Rosemary Gallipoli
Gallipoli Rosemary is a very special variety of rosemary, valued not only for its attractive appearance and wonderful fragrance, but also for its connection with Australia’s ANZAC history. With its upright growth, aromatic deep green foliage and delicate pale blue to lavender flowers, it makes a beautiful and meaningful addition to the garden.
This hardy evergreen shrub produces masses of small flowers amongst its fine, fragrant foliage, attracting bees and other beneficial pollinators. Its naturally neat, upright habit makes it ideal for herb gardens, borders, low hedging, pots, memorial gardens and sunny Mediterranean-style landscapes.
Gallipoli Rosemary thrives in full sun and well-drained soil and is wonderfully hardy once established. It handles heat and periods of dry weather well, making it an excellent choice for Australian gardens. The aromatic foliage can also be enjoyed for culinary use.
Tip: Rosemary dislikes wet feet, so excellent drainage is the secret to keeping Gallipoli Rosemary happy. Give it a light prune after flowering to encourage fresh, bushy growth and maintain a beautifully compact shape.
