watering
Rosemary (Salvia rosmarinus 'Gorizia') requires moderate watering on a regular basis and good drainage. Water deeply once a week during summer, allowing soil to dry between each watering. During winter, water the plant deeply once every 2-3 weeks, allowing it to dry out before the next watering. Do not allow soil to become soggy or it could lead to root rot. In general, err on the side of underwatering rather than overwatering.
sunlight
Rosemary (Salvia rosmarinus 'Gorizia') should receive plenty of sunlight, ideally 6 to 8 hours per day. This should be direct sunlight in the morning or late afternoon, rather than full, intense sun all day. During the peak of the summer months, it is best to provide more filtered light, such as through a curtain with a south-facing window. Rosemary also enjoys some partial shade. It grows best in temperatures between 60-70 degrees F (16-21 degrees C).
pruning
Rosemary (Salvia rosmarinus 'Gorizia') should be pruned in the late winter or early spring season. Pruning can help shape the plant and reduce its size so it remains manageable. Cut back the plant to just above the soil line and remove any dead, dying, or diseased branches. To maintain the plants natural form, prune lightly and avoid removing any large branches. You may also need to pinch and trim the tips of the branches to encourage fuller growth.
