Thank you Muthu ji,
for sharing this beautiful plant. I saw it growing wild and in plenty on
Canary islands and in Apulien / Puglia (south Italy). It has a very
pleasent frangrance.
Yes, the oil is added to bathwater or applied to the body after the bath
to increase the skin-bloodcirculation. It is also used in many spices
and goes very well with banana.
I have a small plant in a pot. Mani ji, i was surprised to read that
your plant did not survive in the heat in Mumbai. Rosemary likes hot
weather. My plant I have to take into the house in winter.
Better Luck next time.
Regards
Nalini

Amitji beautiful photos of Rosemary. It is believed that smelling
Rosemary is good for people suffering from low memory. The essential
oil obtained from Rosemary is added in bathing water. I have tried to
propagate this plant from stem cuttings from the Rosemary sold in the
local market and was successful, but due to my over care and heat of
Mumbai it did not survive for more than a year. Better luck next time.
Regards,
Mani.
