I have two big rosemary bushes in containers. Every year I would bring them inside in winter and eventually they died. This past winter, I brought them in at night and if the temp was going to be over 32 during the day, I lugged the containers outside EVERY DAY. It was a pain, but the two plants thrived. Hopefully, I can save them for a few more years doing this.

Unlike most people, I like rosemary for the fragrance only. My huge plants are neer used for culinary purposes. I like the pine scent!

As a matter of a fact, for the first time, my plants actually flowered. I have never seen that in a rosemary plant. What does this mean? Is it time to repot, or cut back? Should I cut the flowers off?

TIA
