Organic Greek Oregano
Perennial

Origanum heracleoticum
Description
HEIRLOOM Aromatic and mouth-watering, oregano is easy to grow as well as perennial, delectable both fresh and dry. Low growing and with velvet leaves, oregano thrives in containers and partial sun as well as raised beds and gardens. For millennia, oregano has been used medicinally as an antiseptic as well as for stomach and respiratory ailments in addition to her beloved versatility in our kitchens.
At Fruition, we sow oregano indoors in soil blocks six weeks before final frost, transplanting out after final frost.
