Back in for the new season and looking and smelling fantastic - just as pictured!
These Christmas Rosemary pyramids make a great alternative Christmas tree that can be planted out in the garden at the end of the festive season. Decorated with pretty blue and green metal bells and cute dried fruit decorations, these festive trees will look great in a cool kitchen or living room and add a lovely fragrant scent to their surroundings.
Rosemary is of course great in a whole host of winter dishes including turkey stuffing and Christmas cocktails so snip a bit off whenever you need it.
Great gifts for chefs or anyone looking for more sustainable Christmas decorations, these trees are easy to look after, just keep the soil damp whilst they are indoors and move them outside at the end of the festive season.
In the garden these fragrant herbs will grow on into a more natural bush shape and provide fragrant foliage for stews and casseroles for many years to come.
We do only have limited numbers of these unusual Christmas trees, so order now to reserve yours or check out our other edible plants available for next day delivery.

Rosemary plants are very hardy and will be happiest outside or in a cool bright room or conservatory. The aromatic foliage is evergreen and they tend to flower on and off without a strict season.
Like most plants, herbs need sunlight. If indoors, try to keep your rosemary away from any radiators and out doors protect the roots with fleece from severe cold (-4C) or you can even plant your rosemary out in the ground.
Whilst in a pot your rosemary will need watering regularly. If you are away for a few days or the weather is very warm, stand your plants in a tray or saucer of water.
When picking herbs for cooking, cut or pick stems cleanly from the tip and try to harvest evenly to preserve the neat shape of your bush. Use sprigs of Rosemary whole with roast meats or stews or finely chop fresh rosemary and sprinkle with salt over roast potatoes before cooking.
Problem solving
Rosemary plants are generally very robust and need little care. Just ensure you keep them watered in the summer months and they will reward you with masses of tasty leaves for cooking and even edible blue flowers.
As conditions indoors can be quite humid, occasionally indoor herbs may develop a mildew or mould near the base of the leaves, if this occurs, pull off any affected leaves and try moving to a sunnier position with good airflow. Uneven watering can also be a cause of mould and mildews so ensure that you water regularly.
