I have the Tuscan Blue variety - does anyone know if it is possible for it to grow higher than 6 feet?  I wanted it to serve as an herb hedge for the corner of a garden bed...
Thanks, Anne.

I did not get Rosemary to survive in the greater Chicago area, but now in a dry climate with low temps bottoming out at -10 people with priviledged microsites can get them to survive.  I assume you are trying the hardiest ones, Arp, Madline Hill, and Hall's Hardy.  The prostrate ones are signficantly less hardy.  I am waiting to see if my new spot at the base of a stone raised bed facing south will work, all the success stories here are in south facing sites, protected on the north side.
