I have a big rosemary plant (bush?) that has been moved inside every winter for about seven or eight years.

We get a lot less sunight than southern states and it does fine next to a window. Doesn't grow a lot in winter but stays healthy (house is quite cool) and provides enough for cooking. As soon as it goes back outside in the early spring, it starts to grow fast.

I have friends in climates where it seldom gets below freezing who leave it outside year around. Think Tuscan latitude?

enjoy,
Nan

I agree with Nan, a nice sunny window does wonders!

Howdy Nan- you've been missed! Hope all is well... Heard from Brook a couple days back... How long before you're back up North and back on the "chain-gang"? Will you be done w/ time off and back in the routine of cooking again before too much longer? Say- are you familiar w/ Seattle's Cathy Casey? I got this cookbook a few weeks back- pretty good w/ lots Northwestern yummies!

So far it is doing fine. I havent tried keeping any sort of plant or bush indoors in years.

So far Herbie the rosemary bush is doing good.
