How long does it take for a rosemary plant to regrow after pruning it?

Question

Will more branches appear?

Answer 1

Do not keep the soil moist on rosemary as suggested here...They like to go COMPLETELY DRY..in fact you do not water at all through droughts unless you see the leaves start to gop dry..they are slow but every where you have cut them wuill branch out into two stems from the one you cut...And by all means do not fertilize...Here is a paragraph from a link attached below it..then a picture of my hedges that are 20 or 30 feet wide and 7 and 8 feet high in places..

Rosemary are very easy to grow evergreen shrubs. They prefer full sun to partial shade. They will do well in almost any soil. They tolerate dry soil conditions and drought. They should not require water during droughts, but add water if they appear to wilt. They usually do not require fertilizer.

Once your Rosemary reaches a couple of feet, don't hesitate to bring out the shears and shape it. Be creative if you dare!

Harvest leaves and use fresh, as needed, in the summer. As autumn arrives, pick leaves in the morning when the oils are at their peak. Spread leaves out to dry in a cool, well ventilated area. Or, pick and freeze immediately.

Answer 2

It depends on the conditions. Rosemary is very hardy and drought tolerant, but it grows very slow in extreme heat. Keep the soil moist and it should grow fairly quick.
