Gram always said “rosemary was for rememberance’ and had it planted by her door, so those coming and going would brush against it. We have it planted near out door, too, but it isn’t close enough to brush against. In my book, Star Bridge, Nimri, who is an herbal healer, has it planted next to her kitchen door. To this day, I wonder if Gram meant that the scent should be remembered or if she somehow knew that rosemary helped one’s memory… To the best of my knowledge, she didn’t know about Alzheimer’s and that rosemary would be linked to stimulating cognitive activity in the elderly as well as those suffering from other acute cognitive disorders. (For me, it will always be linked to doors.)
I never thought about eating the flowers. I’ve heard you should plant it by a door for remembrance.
You always manage to mix good sense with usefulness in your postings. Rosemary for remembrance and certainly in cooking – I agree completely,
It’s great as a tea as well 😋😋I didn’t know the flowers were edible wow
