Is it too late to trim a Rosemary hedge (mid September). Meant to do it earlier but got distracted. Thanks.

Many thanks. Will give it a try. have cuttings growing in case of losses!
rosebudr - I've found rosemary very easy from seed, so that might be a cheap way of doing it if the cuttings don't take.
I waited till it was warm enough here before sowing, so probably May or thereabouts. Plant grew quite quickly to a decent size
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
Rosemary apparently thrives on being cut So I wouldn't have an Issue now, I've also found it incredibly easy to take cuttings - took a few hundred last year and the success rate was well over 90% And the plants are up to 18inches high this year. How tall/wide is your hedge and how wide did you plant? I used the cuttings for a hedge.
