Dahlia,
That is, probably, a Very Good Choice.
We have had rosemary plants for years and they require very little even here where they cannot survive outdoors during the Winter. Fresh rosemary has no substitute.

You should try the ARP rosemary variety. It can withstand temps down to negative 10 farenheit!

In typical @digitS' fashion,
the "name" is bothersome

University of Illinois says it is hardy to zone 6; Cornell University has it as zone 7. I might be able to have some trust in one but not the other.
