Description

Rosmarinus officinalis, commonly known as trailing rosemary, is a versatile evergreen shrub ideal for the Mediterranean climate of Cyprus. With its low, creeping habit, it spreads attractively over walls or garden edges, making it perfect for ground cover or decorative landscaping. Its narrow, aromatic dark green leaves with silvery undersides emit a pleasant fragrance, while its delicate pale violet to lavender-blue flowers bloom from spring to early summer. It thrives in sunny, dry conditions and is very drought-tolerant once established. This plant is low-maintenance and highly ornamental, suitable for both functional and decorative purposes in warm coastal gardens.
