Fothergills Herb Greek Oregano Seeds

Origanum vulgare hirtum, commonly known as Greek Oregano, is a cherished herbaceous perennial, valued for its potent aromatic qualities and culinary versatility. This robust plant produces small, dark green leaves, intensely fragrant and rich in essential oils, which are quintessential for authentic Mediterranean cuisine. In summer, delicate pinkish-white flowers emerge, attracting pollinators. Thriving in full sun and well-drained soil, it forms a compact, bushy mound, ideal for herb gardens, containers, or as an aromatic groundcover. Its strong, peppery flavor intensifies when dried. Regular harvesting encourages vigorous growth, ensuring a continuous supply of its flavorful foliage. A truly indispensable herb.
