Why We Love It:

Rosemary is a true garden staple—beautiful, aromatic and incredibly useful in the kitchen. Its evergreen structure makes it ideal for South London gardens and balconies, offering year-round interest as well as fresh herbs on demand. Drought-tolerant and low-maintenance once established, it’s perfect for sunny, dry spots where other plants might struggle.
