Herb - Origanum vulgare
Availability: In stock
Origanum vulgare, commonly known as Oregano, is a wonderfully aromatic perennial herb prized for its fragrant foliage and culinary versatility. Forming neat mounds of soft green leaves, this Mediterranean favourite produces clusters of delicate pink to mauve flowers during summer that are highly attractive to bees and other pollinators. Both ornamental and practical, Oregano brings texture, fragrance and flavour to gardens, patios and kitchen plots alike.
Ideal for herb gardens, raised beds and containers, Oregano pairs beautifully with thyme, rosemary and sage. Easy to grow and drought tolerant once established, it thrives in full sun and well-drained soil. Harvest leaves regularly to encourage fresh growth and trim back after flowering to maintain a compact habit. Whether used fresh in cooking or enjoyed as an attractive garden plant, Oregano is an essential addition for gardeners who appreciate beauty and flavour in equal measure.
