Use Well-Draining Soil

This herb prefers soil that drains well. A lightweight potting mix designed for herbs or succulents usually works best.
Avoid Overwatering
Rosemary prefers slightly dry conditions. Water only when the top layer of soil feels dry to the touch. Too much moisture may weaken the plant over time.
Prune Regularly
Trimming rosemary encourages fuller growth and helps maintain its shape. Fresh sprigs can be used immediately in cooking or dried for later use.
