Ground Rosemary, mentioned in Don Quixote and Hamlet, rosemary has a storied past. It was used to ward off thieves, boost memory, and inspire fidelity among newlyweds. Historically associated with remembrance, rosemary was presented to grooms on the morning of their wedding as a reminder to be faithful.
From original idea here
Rosemary is used in abundance throughout European cuisines, while its popularity in lamb and chicken dishes have earned it a place in American cooking as well.
Its story is best told in the many lamb, pork, and chicken recipes that call for Rosemary's piney flavour.
Rosemary Christmas Trees
It’s Christmas time again and maybe you are looking for another decorating idea, or you live in a small apartment and just don’t have the room for a full size Christmas tree. Of late, rosemary Christmas trees plants have become popular nursery, garden centres and grocery store items.
Not only is rosemary used as a Christmas tree festive ornamental for the season, but it is predominantly disease and pest resistant, aromatic, a culinary treasure, and responds beautifully to pruning to maintain the shape. Additionally, a rosemary tree for Christmas can be planted in the garden to wait the following holiday season while maintaining its role as an indispensable herb.

Very yummy! Valerie
I LOVE the idea of a rosemary tree.
Thank you. I may have to get (another) plant to prune and shape for next year.
We eat a lot of chicken breast. This sounds tasty.
Hubby's aunt gave us a rosemary tree one year. I managed to kill it, sadly. I love rosemary, ant feel badly!
...it make a beautiful little Christmas tree.
I love rosemary and use it quite often. I have had one of the rosemary trees for several years...and move it outside in the summer. Have a wonderful week. Diana
Mmm, chicken and rosemary, and I like the rosemary Christmas tree.
The tree looks great.
That chicken recipe looks tasty!
My daughter in law had a Rosemary Christmas tree a few years ago and lived in the pot for a long time! The recipe sounds yummy! holiday hugs!
I actually bought one of those rosemary shaped trees about seven years ago. It didn't last through winter. It was my first experience with rosemary. Not sure I'm doing much better this winter, but at least this plant lasted through two years of my mistreating it (grin). I see the rocking horse on the tree and fixated on that.
I like rosemary and love that little tree. Should get one!!
I see quite a few of those rosemary Christmas trees and really like them. That chicken recipe looks especially delicious. I love rosemary and I'm copying this one! Happy Christmas week to you and Eddie. Please stay in and stay safe. I worry about my friends in the UK these days.
Felices fiestas y salud.
I have never succeeded with rosemary as a plant. It always dies out - indoors. Not sure if it is too much water, too little, too hot, too cold - but I know it is too difficult to keep it alive. Tried several times. Perhaps a plastic one will do!
God bless.
I could cut my rosemary into a tree shape. Fun idea, with a wonderful odor. And your chicken looks delicious. I made a roast with rosemary last week and it smelled wonderful!
Rosemary is one of my favourite herbs. I have a huge bush of it and try to trim it in autumn and spring. It's so fragrant and I love the little lavender flowers it makes. The chicken dish sounds wonderful.
a Rosemary tree would be quite fragrant in an apartment, I'd think. I Had a bunch of Rosemary when I lived in Georgia--it was one of the few things the deer wouldn't eat and I would often plant a batch of rosemary with other plants to deter the deer.

A rosemary tree how awsome is that.
Coffee is on and stay safe
I LOVE rosemary chicken! I eat it a lot!! The tree is cool! Thank you or sharing!
This does look very delicious! I have all the ingredients on hand, too. I have managed to keep two rosemary plants alive by planting them in large clay pots and keeping them against the house under the eaves on the south side. You can tell I am proud of myself - haha! Interesting lore - I like the tradition of giving it to grooms :) Wishing you and loved ones a lovely Christmas filled with many blessings xo Karen
Another great chicken recipe and what a lovely idea for a Christmas tree.
It looks yummy and very easy to make another lovely recipe to me to try. I never thought about a rosemary Christmas tree, something to think about as I do have rosemary in the garden.
That chicken sounds yummiest!!! I will try this (after Christmas, no more shopping now!).
The tree is pretty darned cool. I like the idea. And, of course that chicken recipe sounds delicious.
This chicken sounds SO delicious - I will give it a try...and the rosemary Christmas Tree looks absolutely amazing! WOW!!!
Have a lovely afternoon, and stay safe and happy!😊😊

I've not heard of rosemary Christmas trees before, but I really like the idea.
I won't be cooking a traditional meal for the holiday, so I really like this one a lot. Of course, I'll be adding lots and lots of cayenne pepper to heat things up!(lol) Thanks so very much! Merry Christmas and lots of hugs, RO
looks absolutely delicious~!
Boa tarde parabéns pela receita deliciosa. Desejo um Feliz Natal com muita paz e saúde para você e sua família.
Love the tree and the chicken looks delicious 🍪☕🎅🎁🎄
Ooogh, that chicken looks utterly delicious!!!
I love the idea of a Rosemary Christmas tree!
Thank you for the recipe and thank you for the tree! What a great idea! Big Hugs!
i think i have seen this herb here in of the house lady when my mom and sister lived in rented house in Islamabad though it is not common her
idea of using another tree if big christmas tree is not possible sounds great too
I love the little rosemary trees though they take much attention to keep them look as such. Myself, I plant my rosemary by the front door - protection and close for cooking snips!
So delicious!
