greetings all
our coastal rosemary has been in a large 1 mitre long x 1/3 mtr wide and same deep container for 2 yrs and it just sits there in a sunny spot.. they were in plastic pots when web bought them almost a mitre high so well advanced but they have not shot , grown or done much at all. we used good potting mix ane we have mulched and fertilised with lite blood and bone.
has anyone any thoughts asd to how we can get them growing or even looking healthy
thanks

| hi, coastal rosemary likes a good regular pruning to keep it bushy. If you give it a light prune all over it should spur on some fresh new growth. |

| I would give it a good hard prune and then keep it quite moist and cool. Probably in a bit more shade than you would expect. Give them a while. Use the prunings as cuttings and the whole garden will be full of it by next year. |
