[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I need advice n pruning rosemary. A few years ago I stuck my rosemary plant in the ground at the side of my house, facing south, and it not just survived, it thrived. I now have a huge rosemary bush that has grown into the path. The base — every branch for about the first 4 inches— is bare wood, and then the rosemary starts. If I cut it back I will be cutting all the green parts off. Is that OK? If not, how can I prune it to reduce its size? Thanks. [/quote] The specific branches you cut back to bare wood will not grow again, but new branches will grow. You can cut it back by 1/3 without killing the plant. If the concern is that it's intruding into the path, cut all of the branches that stick into the path and leave the rest - you'll still have a rosemary plant that is pruned to fit the space.[/quote]
