My Rosemary is all dried up. I watered it 3 days back and The soil is still wet and it has proper drainage too. Any idea what I could do to get some new growth?

Is the stem dead? Dried up?
1 LikeNo, stem still has life. The soil is damp and the leaves have a white layer or spots on it which looks like some infection

The white layer is likely powdery mildew. It’s a pretty common issue with rosemary unfortunately

In my opinion Rosemary just does not enjoy being indoors haha I haven’t gotten one to really thrive indoors yet. They do ok or they end up dried up but when I plant it outdoors they grow beautifully.

It took me 3 time to accept defeat as well haha now she strictly lives outdoors. I winterized her this year to see if she’ll come back this spring. Fingers crossed!

Cut it all the way back to almost the stump, where there looks like new growth. Place outside, rosemary is a Mediterranean plant. But yeah, looks like something got to it.

Powdery mildew thrives in places with low air circulation!
