Guest guest Posted December 4, 2007 Report Share Posted December 4, 2007 The one I had was just under ten dollars and it said on the tag it was edible. Very good idea to check the tree tags though.

My niece went to Lowe's to check on them and she said she read the 'directions' that come with them. She tells me that the directions state that the Rosemary Trees will last *indoors for apx. 2 weeks.* These plants have not been raised to be eaten so most likely have been treated with chemical herbicides and insecticides. She says the price is $15 -$20 dollars depending on where they are purchased. Beautiful little things but I have tried twice in the past to keep them alive past Christmas and it didn't work. It is too late in my part of the country to think about transplanting it outdoors. Deanna in Colorado Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am in Northern Illinois near the Wisconsin border and have friends about 30 miles west. They have a Lowe's store in Rockford, IL and I purchased these trees 2 years in a row and both years lost them very soon. Lowe's is very much like Home Depot and Menards but I have not seen the trees in either of these stores. in Northern Illinois (who woke up to 9 inches of snow this morn) ************************************** Check out AOL's list of 2007's hottest products.

Guest guest Posted December 5, 2007 Report Share Posted December 5, 2007 The one we bought from Lowe's was from http://204.200.205.208/ and on their website they have food recipes for using the rosemary. I would assume that means they are for food consumption with food recipes on their website. I put a call in to them this morning and I'm waiting on them to return my call with an answer. I'll let you know what they say. One their website it does say to move them outside after the Christmas season. I assume that means this variety of Rosemary needs more sunshine that is available inside a home.
