Make sure your plants have plenty of light. If you don't have a natural light option, consider putting in a florescent light under one of your upper kitchen cabinets or wherever you have your plants. You can find these at nurseries or on the larger gardening websites. Bottom-watering is best for most plants, indoors and out. Water the roots, not the entire plant.
Rosemary plants are really picky about watering.
They like to be watered daily or a few times a week, but they don't like to sit in the water. Most potted plants only need to be watered weekly or twice a week, depending on the plant itself. Check out some indoor gardening books from the library and research the needs of your plants. Kim Tilley is the mother of three boys, ages 9,6 and 2.
