I have one growing indoors in a pot in soil that is mostly
garnet sand-blasting grit. It dries out so fast that it is
difficult to overwater it. It grew outside last year,
overwintered inside, and then I never got around to
moving it back outside this year.

Does ok in a south window, although it is a little
sparse looking, and it never has flowered. I pinch
a foot or so off of it when I need some rosemary
for a soup or similar.

It has a twin that overwintered outside last year
in a bed close to the house that drains really well.
I piled up 6 inches of loose leaves, teabags, and
so on around it last fall, and I covered the ground
in that bed with green fir branches when the temperature dropped into the 20s. It survived. That one never has
flowered, either.(?)
