Rosmarinus officinalis "Miss Jessop" 25/8 Restock each blossom shot through withAmong the upright rosemaries, 'Miss Jessopp's Upright' stands as the tall, columnar backbone of the herb garden, sending stiff, aromatic branches skyward in a narrow plume rather than the low sprawl of the creeping kinds.

Bowles selected and passed into wider cultivation, and the shrub has been grown under her name for more than a century.
