My grandmother kept a small bucket of rosemary in all the rooms of her house. She insisted that during the Spanish Flu it is what kept her family free of it. When she changed out the water she poured the spent water around her house and it seemed to fertilize her roses. They grew up and created a gorgeous hedge around her home.
@@feltingme yes, she out cut rosemary branches into pails of water. She changed the water weekly. The old water was used on he Dr. Van Fleet rise bushes. They grew into a breathtaking hedge that went all around her house.
@@MrSharonrochelle Wow! The old ways that have been forgotten and that many scoff at almost always turn out to have good science behind them. I am wondering if defusing Rosemary essential oil in a room would have a similar effect.
When I can't sleep I will put a sprig of rosemary on my pillow. I take a few deep breaths of it and it helps me to sleep. I do grow rosemary as well as other medicinal herbs
As we were working cleaning the new place, we uncovered an old rosemary bush. She was in sad shape, but with a little TLC, she is coming around. Found an elderberry and a lot of useful herbs too. Like a treasure hunt!
I am surrounded by a twenty foot hedge of rosemary. I use the rosemary, cloves, cinnamon sticks, oranges, and cranberries in my simmer pot in the fall. Love the smell and reminds me of the holidays.
I grew rosemary last year because I read it helped memory loss. Wen it came time to harvest I forgot what I was growing it far but harvested anyway thinking I'd eventually remember. LOL
Thank you Heidi .. you must put a lot of effort and time into preparing these videos for those of us who love to learn. I’m 75 and learning a great deal from your videos. I’ve made 6 of the ‘frontier’ skirts and love them, wear what we in Australia, call bike pants under them. Stretchy and come halfway to the knee, but I lined the fork with a nice soft cotton gusset. Have made 2 batches of soap (successfully), they are now ‘curing’. Now learning to make the herbal and floral oils. I get so much info from your site my head spins. Many thanks for all your efforts. I appreciate it. ❤️🌻
What area of OZ? I am in QLD, and enjoying watching. This week I plan to re-watch vinegar and start a raisin one. And started saving some citrus peels to try the citrus drink. Hopefully lemon and lime will taste ok
@@moniquelr977 .. Hi Monique .. I live in Bundaberg .. lovely to hear from you. Heidi has a great site, doesn’t she - people from all over the world listed in to her ‘how to’ videos. I have learned a lot and am in the process of putting it into practice. 🌻
I use rosemary for so much. Hair care (an ACV rinse, an herbal shampoo), tincture for brain health, tea for brain health and circulation, and in my salves for it's aroma and it's antibacterial properties. She is my favorite plant ally! (BTW- I love your videos.)
@@elisamarro7356 fill jar with fresh rosemary. No need to pack it. Fill jar with 100 proof vodka (80 works). Let sit for 6-8 weeks out of sunlight. Shake it when you remember to. Strain. Dosage varies. I take about 3 droppers per day. I don't take it all the time though. It is antimicrobial...and we have very microbial bodies. Disclaimer: Please do research on your own about this. :)
I love Rosemary. I am an RN and have chronic pain so I use it in my personal pain oil recipe. I also make my own bath oil consisting of: rosemary, arnica, valerian root, ginger root, and eucalyptus - add are drops in my epsom salt bath….it’s wonderful! I just bought some to plant today. Thank you for all of your videos. I learn so much from you!
I’ve got a beautiful rosemary bush in my garden, I love to add it to infusions, sauces, even red meat. Sometime ago I got some fresh sprigs in a glass of water and placed in the shower for the aroma, and it grew roots! New plant now. :-)
I put Rosemary essential oil on my natural bristle brush for my hair. I have done this since the early 70s when I discovered it at an herb shop in Seattle Pike place market
I love the smell of rosemary. and have 2 large plants. I knew a few of the things you mentioned, but had no idea that it does so much! Rosemary is also used in wedding bouquets, & it at one time symbolized loyalty & fidelity. It also makes a fragrant entrance for the bride. Thank you! Many Blessings!!
Great and thanks. I have rosemary plants in my gardening and I use them in my cooking all the time - lamb shanks, tea, chicken, salad dressings and gifting. They are thriving in the winter both in the container and in ground.
I over wintered my Rosemary indoors with a grow light as I don't think she would survive our MI winter. She appreciated it and has provided me with sprigs all winter. I divided her when I potted her so now I have two :) Interesting to hear that Rosemary helps with addictions. I quit smoking in November and the only thing I used to help me was Rosemary Oil on cloth which I inhaled when I was feeling cravings. I also add a few drops of the oil into my shampoo because it gets rid of my dandruff. Rosemary is amazing!
A couple of years ago I bought 1lb of powdered Rosemary. My desire was to sprinkle on things which were not in a stew or soup, like hamburgers, steaks, etc. usually paired with garlic. I tried grinding it into powder myself, and failed miserably ;-) I love it on roasted potatoes. You've given me many ideas for new uses, and it's good to know what it's doing in my body! Thanks, Heidi for another VERY INFORMATIVE video!
You might also like it on a 'root rost', wher you combine veg like carrot, potato, onion, garlic etc together with oilive oil and rosemary, S&P and roast. Delicious!
I used to grow rosemary, and I cook a lot of thing with rosemary, even spaghetti like what you say, I even add Rosemary in my water bottle, thank you so very much for the information benefits about Rosemary and I will grow Rosemary again that bless you❤🙏
Thank you Heidi and community.🙂 Last year I made a floral vinegar but I didn't think of the rosemary until after. When I strained it out, I added sprigs of rosemary to infuse. One of my favorite ways to have potatoes is roasted or sauted with olive oil and rosemary. Blessings!💜
@@elisamarro7356 I didn't specifically make rosemary vinegar. I infused the rosemary in the vinegar. Heidi does have videos to make vinegar out of just about anything!
I have a very large rosemary plant and use it all the time in cooking and making oils. I just recently used the flowers to make a compound butter! So good 😋
I have a rosemary bush that is quite beautiful, I live in Charleston South Carolina, it is about 11 years old. Around October, I have taken fresh sprigs of rosemary and stuck it in small bottles of olive oil to impart a rosemary flavor till Christmas . I give them as gifts. I love the flavor of the rosemary in the olive oil. I just recently learned that you can cut rosemary sprigs and stick them in the jars of water (which I think looks pretty) but I didn’t know that the sprigs would root! Voila - new bushes started!
I just bought fresh rosemary at the store to root in water. I’ve never tried it. Hoping it works. I struggle to keep my plants alive through the summer but love rosemary. I just want to plunge my face in it all day!
Hi Anita, I also live in South Carolina but on the western side. I’ve tried several attempts at growing rosemary and have never been successful! Any tips?
@@JamieCamile495 the only thing I’ve discovered with the intense heat, is, to put your rosemary in a place where it gets 6-8 hrs of sun starting with the morning sun. Having shade to protect it from the intense afternoon sun which stress it too much
As I watch this I have a vinegar tincture brewing where I put Rosemary and chamomile together specifically for insomnia and anxiety.. I'm still pretty much a novice at herbology but I learn so much from your videos.thanks
Thank you for all the helpful information. I have been using Rosemary for a couple of years now, I started putting dried rosemary in my olive oil bottle. I have been making Rosemary tincture for brain health since this summer and I drink a small sip every day. I have been adding Rosemary to salad dressings, smoothies and today I'm going to add dried rosemary to my castor oil, which already has cloves. I use it to massage all of my achy areas and my face. After a few weeks massaging my lids and eye area with castor oil I no longer saw the big spider leg floaters that I saw all the time. I also don't wake up with my numb hands like I used to after thoroughly massaging them with castor oil. Happy New Year
Thank you for all the great information. I'm Italian so we grew up with it. I love how easy it is to propagate. I had tons of them and gave them away as gifts...big pots of rosemary. To propagate, get some good soil, a bottle of root tone, dip the cutting into the root tone, and shake off excess, and place it into moist soil, and keep it damp. However, if you put the cutting into water it will sprout roots sooner. I love, love, love, rosemary.
This will be my first year to try growing herbs. I have to admit I have a brown thumb. I'm hoping they do well. You have inspired me to make my own inventions with herbs.. I'm excited. Thank you Holly. God bless you
I have started grinding my dry rosemary to a powder and honestly my family loves it sprinkled on my dry canned potatoes with salt, powered onion, and powered garlic before we put them in the air fryer to crisp them up. It’s a great way to add nutritional herbs to flavour your food.
Thank you for all the info on Rosemary I grow a lot of it but I only use it for tea after listening to your info I now am going to try a lot of new stuff thank you so much for your help
I just love the smell of rosemary. I have been growing it for about 4 years now. It does not survive the winters here. I dry it to use in recipes. Love it fresh in cooking. Great video. I need to try it for headaches and pain.
Hello! I started using rosemary and clove water last fall as I had a lot of hair loss and a huge bald area. It’s since grown in. I started using it again as I dyed my hair 2 months ago and it started falling out badly. So I’m embracing the grey and using the spray again. I’m going to check out your video on your recipe for the oil version. 😇❤️( I’m in a small apartment without a balcony. So I’m buying items at the grocery store. Or going on nature walks and picking them.). Love your videos.
It grows wild here all over Israel. Love it in roasted potatoes and I use it as a natural preservative in just about anything. Great at keeping the lice at bay too, lol...didn't know about it's painkilling properties though. Will definately try it for that, thanks.
I love rosemary 😃 I use it in cooking ...rosemary and garlic blended together on my chicken and it makes yummy gravy after cooking. Also I make r I tinture. I buy a rosemary mint shampoo and conditioner. It is my favorite smell of all my herb's. ❤
I make a ROSEMARY LEMONADE with Strawberries or Blueberries to sit in a pitcher in the fridge for a refreshing drink all summer long with dinners. Fresh rosemary, mint, cloves and basil infused in oils are used on my hair with cinnamon sticks. My scalp loves it, and my hair grows very fast.
I use it in *’everything’* including salad dressing, lol 😆 and tea! And my flu concoction. Thanks for putting this on your channel today. I grow it. But I bring it in for the winter lately because it’s not surviving winter. It’s enjoyable having Rosemary growing in my home with mint and thyme.
@@kimberlykay130 I had the same problem so now I just keep it outdoors year round. It's been growing in a huge terra cotta pot for 10 years and it overwinters fine in a south exposure next to the house (zone 8B, WA state). Even gets covered with snow occasionally - no problem. I'm scared to even prune it - it seems to thrive on neglect! And it won't tolerate plastic pots because it seems to need to breathe and release moisture.
I grow rosemary and give it to my animals for health. I love it and growing up in an Italian family we used it in sauces etc. it’s amazing! God is amazing for giving us this pure food and medicine! Wendy🧡🎃
This is so perfect!! I have several Rosemary bushes and always looking for new ways to use them! The aromatics are so lovely on top of it being so medicinal! Thank you for always going the extra mile to keep us (fans) informed of ways to improve our lives and health! God Bless!
Love rosemary in a hair oil. I started growing it for fun from a sprig off a friends plant. Grew so easily. Now i love using it in cooking & various oil blends that i make. I keep a huge jar a dried Rosemary 'incase' but love it fresh
Hi Heidi ! I love your videos and learn so much from you. I have a Rosemary tree in my garden, always use fresh leaves for cooking roast dinner and roast potatoes, for flavour and smell. Thank you for your videos.
Before I moved I had a large bush of rosemary that I used for cooking. I want to get another plant going as I love it. Didn't know it had all these benefits. You have so much information in your head! Thank you!
Thank you. I just came across this site as I was browsing. You have given me more information than I have heard. I have used Rosemary on some roasts. I actually like the taste of Rosemary! I will invest in my herbal garden for sure and use the herbs in teas as well. I'm always looking for ways to relieve joint pains. May GOD bless you and your family in Jesus' Name.
I haven't put in rosemary since I moved, but have always grown it. It is at the top of my list to get this year. I've had to buy it at our farmer's market. My dad was recently placed in a memory care facility and I have wondered if there is any such place that deals with memory patients more naturally. Its so sad seeing them drugged and fed boxed mac and cheese and cheap frozen meat. How much better their quality of life would be if they had rosemary, fresh air, and a garden.
Sorry to hear about your Dad. There is a woman Dr who does Ted talks on giving her husband coconut oil and it pulled him out of the dementia. My dad had it and I am doing everything I can to prevent it in myself. My sister has it now but has never really been into eating that healthy. It would be hard for you seeing him fed these foods and not being in control of what’s happening to him I understand how you must feel and unless you had a lot of help it would be very hard for you to take him out and bring him home. My father in law had it as well but did not disintergrate like my Dad because they ate very healthy all their lives. My Dad lived on cakes and biscuits. Maybe you could get some coconut oil or MLC and give it to him when you see him.
You are stunning. Blowing my mind. I love to learn. I grow Rosemary in abundance in my Garden. I want to do it all and you are my Herbal professor! Thank you. Will attempt to video my journey
Thank you for the very useful information. I grow rosemary. Also, add to dog food. It is new for me to rosemary with lavender for headaches, I used peppermint oil
I always tie a red piece of yarn around two stems per plant of my rosemary and don't clip off stems from those two. I do this so the blooms can produce and give me seeds. The rest of the plant gets a regular haircut (I call it) as it grows out for the season and become big, bushy but short.
I love the taste and scent of rosemary .I use it in cooking chicken strips and golden potatoes. I cover both the potatoes and chicken with olive oil and then sprinkle the rosemary on it. Tastes so delicious God bless
Im growing my own rosemary that i propagated from store rosemary. Its going great. Just letting it grow for awhile before harvesting. Although sometimes i pick a little to nibble on. Great video.
@@Rose-ht3xc Sure, please understand I am not a doctor and I am telling you what worked for me. I use 3 drops of organic rosemary essential oil with 1 tablespoon of jojoba oil and rub it into my scalp, wrap a towel around my head and leave on for 30 minutes. Don't do this more than twice a week, I do it every 4th day. Then I wash my hair as usual with a paraben free shampoo and conditioner. In addition to my daily vitamin I take some additional vitamins, b complex, 3000 mcg biotin additionally to the b complex, 250 mg vitamin C, 50 mg zinc with copper vitamin and just in case my thyroid needed some help I take 150 mcg kelp for some natural iodine. Sometimes hair loss is caused by our thyroid. I was sick in december, I am still taking these vitamins and I might continue to take them at least until december this year. You might need to tweak things for yourself as our bodies are all different. Good luck, let me know if you have additional questions. Honestly, I can not tell you which one is the most important because I started taking the vitamins all at the same time except for daily which I always take. I was panicking because of the amount of hair loss I was having. But, I didn't start the hair oil treatment until about 3 weeks after the vitamins and that is when i noticed a difference. Not sure if it was because the vitamins finally kicked in or if it was the oil treatment. Or maybe it was a combination of both.
@@faithboothman9496 Thanks for responding so quickly! I understand that it's not medical advice, I'm just trying to get ANY INFO I CAN (including this video) because I have lost so much of my hair already. Not in clumps or anything, I have always had rather fine hair, but tons of it and that's the only thing that's saved me so far but it's alarming when you lose so much, so fast! I thought it was stress until my Dr told me that she's seen alot of clients lose hair post covid. I had it in November and I'm still losing hair. my Dr said it varies from person to person as far as how much they lose and for how long. I've been taking the biotin and B complex as well as C, D and zinc. What is the copper for? I don't think I've ever seen copper in vitamin form before-is it in with the zinc? Also I'm only taking 1000mcg of biotin so maybe I'll have to increase that. I just bought some tea tree shampoo as well to try.
I steam a few sprigs for about 15 minutes and use the cooled water as a hair rinse, the perfume from the steaming fragrances the whole house! I will try making rosemary oil and use this to condition my hair. I am also going to buy more rosemary plants! Many thanks to you.
I made the most lovely tea just last week, cut two 2’ pieces off a fresh rosemary bush, two 2.5” tips of Oregano, about 1.5” piece of ginger root sliced, 2 Tbsp. Honey, (in the tea pot) a 1” piece of pineapple, a wedge each: of lime, Lemon and orange. Poured boiling water into the teapot. Let it steep for ten-fifteen minutes! It was sooo amazing, I actually added it to my iced water with cucumber slices. The next day I boiled more water and just added the boiling water to my previous days blend. Still same delicious flavour!
I did a double take when I saw this title. I have a friend named Rosemary Benefield which is only a couple letters different from rosemary benefits! I'll have to tell her about this. 😄
I grow rosemary and many herbs. Cooking and starting to use for hair. I’m going to start making a lot of great ideas you shared. Thank you so very much.
I've been using and growing herbs for 45 years. My rosemary (18 years old) is very large and currently covered with many flowers. I use the EO in soaps and make rosemary tea to use instead of water. I cook with it but haven't done it know many of the uses you described. Thanks so much for sharing.
Always loved it and grow it but didn't know of the huge range of wonderful uses and benefits. I always just used it fresh as a skin perfume, in vinegars, and soups and with other fresh herbs on toasted cheese ! Thank for the great info and long list of wonderful ways to use rosemary .
Thanks for this. You cover a lot of ground in a little amount of time. The NIH site is an excellent resource site. I now have a reason to propagate the plant into all rooms of the house for winter by using a grow light to get them started. I can plant it with Thyme, Lavender, and Sage. The four would provide an excellent aroma for the room and they need less water than other plants. All of which have excellent properties for health. This also points to essential oils combined with a carrier oil for personal health uses.
When I use to grow Rosemary I enjoyed putting it in brown gravy. Just crack the leaves a bit and put the whole unstriped section (do not need much) into the gravy(when the gravy is done) and stir while tasting the whole time. It does not take long to add the flavor and you do not want it to strong, just more of a background taste. Thank you for your videos and time :)
Thanks so much Heidi that was so helpful. I grow rosemary and have started making rosemary oil for arthritis and it works wonders. Am going to try mixing with lavender for sinus. I was using the flowers for my niece who has sinus and it was such a relief. One of my grandchildren is epileptic and the seizures are slowly affecting her memory. Am going to give her the rosemary tea and I'm sure it will help
I use it when cleaning its a good insecticide. I create a conditioner for hair treatment for nits mixing it with rosemary neem and lavender or eucalyptus - which makes a good flea wash for animals too! I mix it into my vapour rub for colds. And with my lamb shank roast.
Thanks a million I live in SE London and I’ve just picked some rosemary from my allotment I’ve also planted some today because it has so many remedial benefits , thanks for your the lovely information… I am also making some rosemary tea from fresh rosemary and will add a teaspoon of pure honey from Romania.
I use rosemary for headaches. I started about 5 years ago. My mom had told us about it. I haven't use meds for headaches since. I steep some, drink a cup then later drink a stronger portion.
I use rosemary fresh and dehydrated in my cooking, made soap and my mum used it in her hair, don’t know how. Thanks for another superb and informative video.
I’ve grown and used rosemary for many years. One of the many ways I use it is to make homemade dog shampoo. I always add a couple fresh sprigs to the mix. It’s very good for her older skin plus she never gets the dry skin itch after her bath and she smells great too. 😄
@@staceystultz1018 2 cups water, 3 med sprigs Rosemary, 2 teaspoons melted coconut oil, 1/2 c . apple cider vinegar, and 1/3 c of a mild soap. Unless fleas are present then do Dawn dish liquid. This makes enough for about 4/5 shampoos. However ; my dog weighs 14 lbs so..sometimes I add a bit more soap if she is super dirty.😄
I grow rosemary and dry it every year. I'm eager to try your headache remedy with rosemary and lavender. It's one of my favorite culinary herbs but it's great to know it has such great medicinal properties. I've been collecting and growing many medicinal herbs in the last few years and now am trying to learn how to prepare and preserve them. Thank you for the great info!

I just bought fresh rosemary at the store to root in water. I’ve never tried it. Hoping it works. I struggle to keep my plants alive through the summer but love rosemary. I just want to plunge my face in it all day!
Hi Anita, I also live in South Carolina but on the western side. I’ve tried several attempts at growing rosemary and have never been successful! Any tips?
@@JamieCamile495 the only thing I’ve discovered with the intense heat, is, to put your rosemary in a place where it gets 6-8 hrs of sun starting with the morning sun. Having shade to protect it from the intense afternoon sun which stress it too much
@@anitamarshall7528 thank you. I’ll try another attempt!
As I watch this I have a vinegar tincture brewing where I put Rosemary and chamomile together specifically for insomnia and anxiety..
I'm still pretty much a novice at herbology but I learn so much from your videos.thanks
Thank you for all the helpful information.
I have been using Rosemary for a couple of years now, I started putting dried rosemary in my olive oil bottle. I have been making Rosemary tincture for brain health since this summer and I drink a small sip every day. I have been adding Rosemary to salad dressings, smoothies and today I'm going to add dried rosemary to my castor oil, which already has cloves. I use it to massage all of my achy areas and my face. After a few weeks massaging my lids and eye area with castor oil I no longer saw the big spider leg floaters that I saw all the time.
I also don't wake up with my numb hands like I used to after thoroughly massaging them with castor oil.
Happy New Year
Thank you for all the great information. I'm Italian so we grew up with it. I love how easy it is to propagate. I had tons of them and gave them away as gifts...big pots of rosemary. To propagate, get some good soil, a bottle of root tone, dip the cutting into the root tone, and shake off excess, and place it into moist soil, and keep it damp. However, if you put the cutting into water it will sprout roots sooner. I love, love, love, rosemary.
Yep, having some Italian ancestry myself, I do love my rosemary :)
I keep a rosemary plant growing and use it all year, even in winter to have fresh herbs for cooking.
This will be my first year to try growing herbs. I have to admit I have a brown thumb. I'm hoping they do well. You have inspired me to make my own inventions with herbs.. I'm excited. Thank you Holly. God bless you
I have started grinding my dry rosemary to a powder and honestly my family loves it sprinkled on my dry canned potatoes with salt, powered onion, and powered garlic before we put them in the air fryer to crisp them up. It’s a great way to add nutritional herbs to flavour your food.
good
Very good thank you
The word is powder. Not power.
@@ingerboredickson1533 its a typo,since 2 other times it says powder😊
Such a good idea to grind it to a powder!! Thanks for the tip!
Thank you for all the info on Rosemary I grow a lot of it but I only use it for tea after listening to your info I now am going to try a lot of new stuff thank you so much for your help
I love rosemary. I have a plant that I bring in for the winter. I decorate it at Christmas. I use it with soups and teas. I love the smell. ❤️
I just love the smell of rosemary. I have been growing it for about 4 years now. It does not survive the winters here. I dry it to use in recipes. Love it fresh in cooking. Great video. I need to try it for headaches and pain.
Hello! I started using rosemary and clove water last fall as I had a lot of hair loss and a huge bald area. It’s since grown in. I started using it again as I dyed my hair 2 months ago and it started falling out badly. So I’m embracing the grey and using the spray again. I’m going to check out your video on your recipe for the oil version. 😇❤️( I’m in a small apartment without a balcony. So I’m buying items at the grocery store. Or going on nature walks and picking them.). Love your videos.
Yes I do grow Rosemary and have been successful in growing it for at least 2 seasons. Love it with alot of dishes
Thanks so much! I will be jumping into the playlist today! Just what I was looking for! God Bless You!!!
Thank you for the wealth of your mind and heart! Still praying for you with every video .... Go You! For us!
I started growing Rosemay and Thyme and Oregano then drying them. First year doing this. I really enjoyed this video.Thank you
Oh! that is wonderful news with your Gran ma!with the rose mary thank you for sharing God bless you guys.🤗🙏🙏🌻🌻🌻🌹🌹🌹💝
Thank you. I have tons of Rosemary. Now, thanks to you I can actually use it. Love you🥰🙏🥰
It grows wild here all over Israel. Love it in roasted potatoes and I use it as a natural preservative in just about anything. Great at keeping the lice at bay too, lol...didn't know about it's painkilling properties though. Will definately try it for that, thanks.
Can’t stop watching your videos
I love rosemary 😃 I use it in cooking ...rosemary and garlic blended together on my chicken and it makes yummy gravy after cooking. Also I make r I tinture. I buy a rosemary mint shampoo and conditioner. It is my favorite smell of all my herb's. ❤
I make a ROSEMARY LEMONADE with Strawberries or Blueberries to sit in a pitcher in the fridge for a refreshing drink all summer long with dinners. Fresh rosemary, mint, cloves and basil infused in oils are used on my hair with cinnamon sticks. My scalp loves it, and my hair grows very fast.
My sister, you are super homely. I see myself in you. I thank God for your channel.
I grow Rosemary, I enjoyed hearing how you use this herb. I basically use it in cooking and baking. Thank you.
I grow Rosemary successfully. Use it dried in cooking. Thank you for tips in oils and salads. Will add to that too.
I use it in *’everything’* including salad dressing, lol 😆 and tea! And my flu concoction. Thanks for putting this on your channel today. I grow it. But I bring it in for the winter lately because it’s not surviving winter. It’s enjoyable having Rosemary growing in my home with mint and thyme.
@@kimberlykay130 I agree! I would love to see the answer to that question! 💜
@@kimberlykay130 I had the same problem so now I just keep it outdoors year round. It's been growing in a huge terra cotta pot for 10 years and it overwinters fine in a south exposure next to the house (zone 8B, WA state). Even gets covered with snow occasionally - no problem. I'm scared to even prune it - it seems to thrive on neglect! And it won't tolerate plastic pots because it seems to need to breathe and release moisture.
@@ellemcclearly1800 Thank you. I’ve tried in plastic pots. I’ll get terra cotta.
I always use Rosemary or Thyme when I cook, my wife says I over do it with spices.
Thank you for all the info I didn't know half of it.
I grow rosemary and give it to my animals for health. I love it and growing up in an Italian family we used it in sauces etc. it’s amazing! God is amazing for giving us this pure food and medicine! Wendy🧡🎃
😊
Amen. Didn't help your animals?
This is so perfect!! I have several Rosemary bushes and always looking for new ways to use them! The aromatics are so lovely on top of it being so medicinal! Thank you for always going the extra mile to keep us (fans) informed of ways to improve our lives and health! God Bless!
Love rosemary in a hair oil. I started growing it for fun from a sprig off a friends plant. Grew so easily. Now i love using it in cooking & various oil blends that i make. I keep a huge jar a dried Rosemary 'incase' but love it fresh
Rosemary is so beautiful the bees love it and smells wonderful. I put some fresh twigs in my car during the summer for a nice clean smell.
Hi Heidi ! I love your videos and learn so much from you.
I have a Rosemary tree in my garden, always use fresh leaves for cooking roast dinner and roast potatoes, for flavour and smell.
Thank you for your videos.
Beautiful name
Beautiful Aroma..
And excellent stress relief
Oil.. Thank you Ma'm 🙏💐💐💐💐💐🙏🌹💞
I love it yumm especially in tea in the morning
I have always grown Rosemary and many other herbs. This has been very helpful in making my infused oils. I am all for anything homeopathic.
Thank you for the great information, I had no idea of how great this is. God Bless you
I started planting a rosemary shrub.I plan to make the hair oil.Thank you for your videos.I love it
Before I moved I had a large bush of rosemary that I used for cooking. I want to get another plant going as I love it. Didn't know it had all these benefits. You have so much information in your head! Thank you!
Thank you. I just came across this site as I was browsing. You have given me more information than I have heard. I have used Rosemary on some roasts. I actually like the taste of Rosemary! I will invest in my herbal garden for sure and use the herbs in teas as well. I'm always looking for ways to relieve joint pains. May GOD bless you and your family in Jesus' Name.
I finally was able to winter over my rosemary here in Alberta (indoors of course). I like rosemary and bay leaf 🍃 ☕️. It is calming.
Oh, i LOVE it!!! I grow it, dry it, and I have the essential oil. GREAT video!!!
Good morning I really apperceive all ur information on natural holistic healing. Thank u so much. I enjoy ur channel.
I haven't put in rosemary since I moved, but have always grown it. It is at the top of my list to get this year. I've had to buy it at our farmer's market. My dad was recently placed in a memory care facility and I have wondered if there is any such place that deals with memory patients more naturally. Its so sad seeing them drugged and fed boxed mac and cheese and cheap frozen meat. How much better their quality of life would be if they had rosemary, fresh air, and a garden.
Sorry to hear about your Dad. There is a woman Dr who does Ted talks on giving her husband coconut oil and it pulled him out of the dementia. My dad had it and I am doing everything I can to prevent it in myself. My sister has it now but has never really been into eating that healthy. It would be hard for you seeing him fed these foods and not being in control of what’s happening to him I understand how you must feel and unless you had a lot of help it would be very hard for you to take him out and bring him home. My father in law had it as well but did not disintergrate like my Dad because they ate very healthy all their lives. My Dad lived on cakes and biscuits. Maybe you could get some coconut oil or MLC and give it to him when you see him.
@@patriciafisher1170 thank you so much! That is helpful.
I don't know what I'm doing wrong. 🥺 I bought potted rosemary in the store, and from a nursery - they always die on me... 🤔😔☹️
@@thekingsdaughter4233 Don't overwater them they need to dry out in between watering , and they need lots of sunshine to get them growing.
@@thekingsdaughter4233 🌺 Also, it depends on where you live. They are not perennial below 20°.🥶 Some varieties are more cold tolerant than others. 🌿
You are stunning. Blowing my mind. I love to learn. I grow Rosemary in abundance in my Garden. I want to do it all and you are my Herbal professor! Thank you. Will attempt to video my journey
Thank you for the very useful information. I grow rosemary. Also, add to dog food. It is new for me to rosemary with lavender for headaches, I used peppermint oil
I always tie a red piece of yarn around two stems per plant of my rosemary and don't clip off stems from those two. I do this so the blooms can produce and give me seeds. The rest of the plant gets a regular haircut (I call it) as it grows out for the season and become big, bushy but short.
Thank you great info larry

Hi Heidi u r a blessing. Stay well. 😎🤗💕🙏🏿🙏🏿🎁🙏🏿
I love the taste and scent of rosemary
.I use it in cooking chicken strips and golden potatoes. I cover both the potatoes and chicken with olive oil and then sprinkle the rosemary on it. Tastes so delicious
God bless
Im growing my own rosemary that i propagated from store rosemary. Its going great. Just letting it grow for awhile before harvesting. Although sometimes i pick a little to nibble on. Great video.
Rosemary essential oil was one of the things to help stop hair loss after I had covid. I took some vitamins also. It's what worked for me.
Could you explain what you took and how you used the oil? Still losing hair almost 6 months post COVID....
@@Rose-ht3xc Sure, please understand I am not a doctor and I am telling you what worked for me. I use 3 drops of organic rosemary essential oil with 1 tablespoon of jojoba oil and rub it into my scalp, wrap a towel around my head and leave on for 30 minutes. Don't do this more than twice a week, I do it every 4th day. Then I wash my hair as usual with a paraben free shampoo and conditioner. In addition to my daily vitamin I take some additional vitamins, b complex, 3000 mcg biotin additionally to the b complex, 250 mg vitamin C, 50 mg zinc with copper vitamin and just in case my thyroid needed some help I take 150 mcg kelp for some natural iodine. Sometimes hair loss is caused by our thyroid. I was sick in december, I am still taking these vitamins and I might continue to take them at least until december this year. You might need to tweak things for yourself as our bodies are all different. Good luck, let me know if you have additional questions. Honestly, I can not tell you which one is the most important because I started taking the vitamins all at the same time except for daily which I always take. I was panicking because of the amount of hair loss I was having. But, I didn't start the hair oil treatment until about 3 weeks after the vitamins and that is when i noticed a difference. Not sure if it was because the vitamins finally kicked in or if it was the oil treatment. Or maybe it was a combination of both.
@@faithboothman9496 Thanks for responding so quickly! I understand that it's not medical advice, I'm just trying to get ANY INFO I CAN (including this video) because I have lost so much of my hair already. Not in clumps or anything, I have always had rather fine hair, but tons of it and that's the only thing that's saved me so far but it's alarming when you lose so much, so fast! I thought it was stress until my Dr told me that she's seen alot of clients lose hair post covid. I had it in November and I'm still losing hair. my Dr said it varies from person to person as far as how much they lose and for how long. I've been taking the biotin and B complex as well as C, D and zinc. What is the copper for? I don't think I've ever seen copper in vitamin form before-is it in with the zinc? Also I'm only taking 1000mcg of biotin so maybe I'll have to increase that. I just bought some tea tree shampoo as well to try.
@@Rose-ht3xc yes the copper should be in with the zinc. I hope the rosemary oil treatment helps you.
@@faithboothman9496 Thanks, I hope so too and I hope you have continued success with yours!
Excellent thank you! Glad I found you this morning.
I use it all the above that you stated. It's wonderful!
I steam a few sprigs for about 15 minutes and use the cooled water as a hair rinse, the perfume from the steaming fragrances the whole house! I will try making rosemary oil and use this to condition my hair. I am also going to buy more rosemary plants! Many thanks to you.
I made the most lovely tea just last week, cut two 2’ pieces off a fresh rosemary bush, two 2.5” tips of Oregano, about 1.5” piece of ginger root sliced, 2 Tbsp. Honey, (in the tea pot) a 1” piece of pineapple, a wedge each: of lime, Lemon and orange. Poured boiling water into the teapot. Let it steep for ten-fifteen minutes! It was sooo amazing, I actually added it to my iced water with cucumber slices. The next day I boiled more water and just added the boiling water to my previous days blend. Still same delicious flavour!
I did a double take when I saw this title. I have a friend named Rosemary Benefield which is only a couple letters different from rosemary benefits! I'll have to tell her about this. 😄
O funny! That would have caught me off guard too! haha
🙂That’s a cool story.
I grow rosemary and many herbs. Cooking and starting to use for hair. I’m going to start making a lot of great ideas you shared. Thank you so very much.
I have a huge rosemary plant that I really need to start using more. My favorite way to use it is on potatoes and chicken.
Thanks dear for the great sharing on Rosemary, I use for hair growth and it's been great 👍
I've been using and growing herbs for 45 years. My rosemary (18 years old) is very large and currently covered with many flowers. I use the EO in soaps and make rosemary tea to use instead of water. I cook with it but haven't done it know many of the uses you described. Thanks so much for sharing.
Thank u for sharinĝ i never knew about its benefits luckily i buoght a bunch and i plamt a peice of the stem and now i have a veryvery beautiful plant
I grow them but not nearly using them to the best. Now I will ,thanks to you.
Always loved it and grow it but didn't know of the huge range of wonderful uses and benefits. I always just used it fresh as a skin perfume, in vinegars, and soups and with other fresh herbs on toasted cheese ! Thank for the great info and long list of wonderful ways to use rosemary .
I was just given a rosemary plant. Had no idea what to use it for. Thank you!
Thanks for this. You cover a lot of ground in a little amount of time. The NIH site is an excellent resource site. I now have a reason to propagate the plant into all rooms of the house for winter by using a grow light to get them started. I can plant it with Thyme, Lavender, and Sage. The four would provide an excellent aroma for the room and they need less water than other plants. All of which have excellent properties for health. This also points to essential oils combined with a carrier oil for personal health uses.
Great idea
When I use to grow Rosemary I enjoyed putting it in brown gravy. Just crack the leaves a bit and put the whole unstriped section (do not need much) into the gravy(when the gravy is done) and stir while tasting the whole time. It does not take long to add the flavor and you do not want it to strong, just more of a background taste. Thank you for your videos and time :)
so glad you are on Rumble
Thanks so much Heidi that was so helpful. I grow rosemary and have started making rosemary oil for arthritis and it works wonders. Am going to try mixing with lavender for sinus. I was using the flowers for my niece who has sinus and it was such a relief. One of my grandchildren is epileptic and the seizures are slowly affecting her memory. Am going to give her the rosemary tea and I'm sure it will help
Is no good for epilepsy becaraful
I use it when cleaning its a good insecticide. I create a conditioner for hair treatment for nits mixing it with rosemary neem and lavender or eucalyptus - which makes a good flea wash for animals too! I mix it into my vapour rub for colds. And with my lamb shank roast.
Thanks a million I live in SE London and I’ve just picked some rosemary from my allotment I’ve also planted some today because it has so many remedial benefits , thanks for your the lovely information… I am also making some rosemary tea from fresh rosemary and will add a teaspoon of pure honey from Romania.
I use rosemary for headaches. I started about 5 years ago. My mom had told us about it. I haven't use meds for headaches since. I steep some, drink a cup then later drink a stronger portion.
I use rosemary fresh and dehydrated in my cooking, made soap and my mum used it in her hair, don’t know how. Thanks for another superb and informative video.
I’ve grown and used rosemary for many years. One of the many ways I use it is to make homemade dog shampoo. I always add a couple fresh sprigs to the mix.
It’s very good for her older skin plus she never gets the dry skin itch after her bath and she smells great too. 😄
Will you give me the recipe for this dog shampoo please
@@staceystultz1018 2 cups water, 3 med sprigs Rosemary, 2 teaspoons melted coconut oil, 1/2 c . apple cider vinegar, and 1/3 c of a mild soap. Unless fleas are present then do Dawn dish liquid. This makes enough for about 4/5 shampoos. However ; my dog weighs 14 lbs so..sometimes I add a bit more soap if she is super dirty.😄
@@7watertiger Thank you so much for sharing!!!
Great idea!!!!!💜
@@7watertigerThank you for sharing that recipe. I am anxious to try it. 🧸
A quick n easy veggie pasta sauce i love is rosemary, mushrooms, balsamic vin, garlic and tomatos ❤
Praise God he is our provider
I put fresh rosemary and sage in my green smoothie.
I grow rosemary and dry it every year. I'm eager to try your headache remedy with rosemary and lavender. It's one of my favorite culinary herbs but it's great to know it has such great medicinal properties. I've been collecting and growing many medicinal herbs in the last few years and now am trying to learn how to prepare and preserve them. Thank you for the great info!
Same here. It can be overwhelming at times trying to learn.
@@kenethasmith5803 So true....if only my memory would retain all the things I learn I'd be happy. :/
I use Rosemary oil in my hair it’s so good love it 😍
