Rosemary

Kedi, from the pic it looks like most of the bush has had it. There are some living bits left on it, but personally I would be tempted to just use the green bits in the kitchen, and replace the whole plant.

 

Looking at that picture, I'd agree. Go out and buy a new one:gnthb:

 

I wouldnt ! I would pull it up and cut all of the dead stuff off, Get a big pot and put some compost in and a new lavender bush and it will latch on to the lavender.
I put a tiny cutting of Rosemary in with a Lavender potted plant last year and today its thriving. I have also planted a huge area today with Lavender , Rosemary and mint. The mint keeps the roots alive and will also bring up the nutriments from the soil. Plant these 3 together and you will see them thrive in the ground. You will have to really cut back the mint though. I have aso had great success with Bay and Rosemary.

You cant beat it with a bit of lamb and some jersey mids, the mint and Rosemary that is

 

That sounds lovely, rosemary,lavender & mint. I came on here ready to ask what to put in a herb border and I think you just saved me time !

 

I would advise very strongly not to plant out mint in a border-sink a pot of it so it looks like it is planted out there-I have spent three hours today pulling out lemon balm-it is VIGOROUS.

 

Lavender is a bit special as it can`t survive on its own, which is a good thing :wink:
It needs mycorrhiza (a root fungi) which also benefits other plants in the vicinity of the roots.
The fungus assists in the absorption of minerals and water from the soil and defends the roots from other fungi and nematodes, while the plant provides carbohydrates to the fungus.

Vineyards use dwarf lavender too.

 

Lollipop - I have mint and it doesnt spread too far, it tends to die on me actually. I find it hard to grow a lot of things up here. Lemon balm grows ok, but pansies die and even ivy dies !
