Growing Rosemary

16 & 27 Jul 2016 - tried growing rosemary via stem-cutting. Both pots didn't make it.

4 Nov 2016 - tried growing rosemary again. This time put the potting mix into eggshells (I bore a hole at the bottom so the water can drain) and put the shells in egg trays.

10 Feb 2017 - finally got down to potting the eggshell rosemary today. As I removed the eggshells, I was amazed how well established the rooting system was. Each stalk had really nice roots! Out of the 12 I grew, 3 died and I think I planted another stalk in Dec... so I am left with 10 stalks. And they fitted nicely into 2 pots. Really happy with the results. :)
