I just realized this plant that’s been in my yard since we moved in 10 years ago looks and smells like rosemary. Is there any reason to believe this is not edible rosemary? (Northern California)
Yes, that is rosemary. You can use it in the kitchen. Probably want to find a fresh young shoot, though, and/or wash off all the stickiness and dead flower detritus that is on the old shoots.
