Early Christmas gift


I bought this rosemary plant two-and-a-half years ago, and this is the first time I've seen it flower.  In the winter, no less!  With the scant light that it gets from a small western window, I am amazed it has summoned the energy to burst into bloom. So far it has three light blue/purple blossoms, but a bud count reveals at least four more are on the way.  I am just so tickled.

Cool! Never seen that either! One of the things I want is an indoor herb garden. This is hopeful to see!

Thanks guys, it is pretty cool. And still blooming! My goal for my indoor herbs over the winter is just to keep them alive. So far, so good....
