rosemary grows pretty fast, too. especially if its happy.
Heck yeah it does. When we bought our house we had a 4-5 foot diameter bush in our back yard. That thing was NOT fun to remove! Rosemary grows very fast here.
But I'm impatient! I sold a house with a giant rosemary bush and bought a house with no landscaping. I had a plan drawn up and made sure there were two spots for rosemary bushes because we love them. Everything is in now, but the landscaper couldn't find any rosemary bushes from his sources. So I said I'd handle it and went looking, but only found 3 gallon ones. To blend in with the rest of the work that was done, I either need to buy big ones now or wait 3 years for them to catch up with the rest. And I don't want to wait. This house will be on the market by then!
I can't imagine finding a rosemary larger than 3 gallon size at a nursery. Maybe you could strike a deal with the party that bought your former place to get possession of that one. Then you could take it with you whenever you move.
as others said, they grow fast and can withstand any weather/season/frost since they are perennials.....i bought mine from a 3 gallon pot....two years later they are about 20 foot in diameter
