Really???  I planted rosemary last Sept.  It is in the
front yard where is gets full exposure to the sun.  It
is planted in sandy soil, which drains very well and
dries out relatively quickly.  I water there once a
week, which means that the plant dries out for several
days at a time.  It was a little plant when I planted
it, about 3-4 inches tall.  It is now 18 inches tall
and sprouting new branches.  I must be doing something
wrong ...
