Rosemary Dying


Question
Hi Leroy,
i live in Victoria in Australia. i have crecently moved house so threw into the ground all my herbs which have been in pots for the last 6 months. Everything in the garden including all new vegies are thriving, however my Rosemary shrub which is approx 70cm high and about 2 years old is not. The leaves have turned yellow. Is this just shock from the move out of the pot and will it recever or should i pull it out quickly and re pot it in nice soil for its best chance at survival?  

Answer
Karlie:
Rosemary is tempermental. It doesn't like to be moved. The yellowing could be that or soil too soggy or the wrong or not enough minerals. I would try feeding it some liquid fish/seaweed fertilizer. Too much water will als turn the leaves yellow. Try the re-potting and feed fertilizer once a month. Watch the water.Once a week is more than enough. Good Luck!

Leroy
