Default Anyone grow rosemary?

I for one think this is the king of herbs, along with bay leaves.
So far I have planted 5 types of the stuff and will continue to plant more.
It is the herb that keeps on giving all year long down here in the south.
It doesn’t need that much water grows about anywhere and hates nitrogen.
The grasshoppers don’t care for it and it makes a great border plant, or shrub.
So far I have hill hardy, forester, Tuscan blue, Gorizia, and a mystery plant.
Now I need to get a few prostrate type plants to add to the mix.
Don’t know how many types I will end up with.
Rosmarinus means sea foam, for the way it looks when it blooms, it aint named after a woman.
By the way, deer hate the stuff.
