Twenty-three named cultivars of Rosmarinus officinalis L. were examined. These cultivars, derived from five botanical varieties, show wide ranges in the leading components: 0.06-57.45% a-pinene, 3.55-42.69% 1,b-cineole, 0.20-56.45% camphor, 0.66-21.03% bornyl acetate, and 0.40-14.69% borneol. They may be grouped into six chemical groups: (1) a-pinene > l,&cineole, (2) 1,b-cineole > a-pinene, (3) a-pinene > camphor + camphene > l,&cineole, (4) camphor + camphene > a-pinene >' l,&cineole, (5) camphor + camphene > 1,b-cineole > a-pinene, and (6) borneol + bornyl acetate > camphor.

The essential oil of 'Powis Castle' does not contradict a putative origin from A. absinthium x A. arborescens pending elucidation of the inheritance of essential components in the genus Artemisia.
