- Aromatic herb with pale blue flowers which smother the shrub in warmer months.
- Fresh or dried my sprigs are a favoured ingredient to flavour Mediterranean vegetable and meat dishes
- Plant me in borders, containers, garden beds and beside pathways so my scented foliage can be enjoyed
- I have good form without trimming but respond well to pruning suiting me to formal hedges and topiary
I am a woody, perennial herb with highly fragrant evergreen needle-like leaves which are a key flavouring ingredient in many Mediterranean cuisines.
I produce an abundance of blue flowers from late winter through to summer.
Hardy I am a good choice for both hot and cool climates tolerating light frosts and dry conditions.
I am associated with improved memory.
Sprigs of me are often worn on Anzac and Remembrance days.
I make a great low formal or informal hedge particularly beside pathways where my aroma will be appreciated.
