Oregano

Oregano, a heritage variety and staple in Mediterranean cuisine, offers a distinctive, aromatic flavor profile that is warm, earthy, and slightly bitter with peppery notes. This specific cultivar is known for its vigorous growth, developing into a bushy plant that is both cold hardy and disease resistant. For the most potent flavor, harvest time is best just before the plant flowers, which typically occurs from late spring through early fall. Regular harvesting encourages a higher crop yield. This herb has a long storage life when dried. While Oregano is self-fertile, its flowers attract numerous pollinators like bees and butterflies, which can enhance cross-pollination. Thriving in full sun and well-drained soil, it is well-suited for fresh eating in salads and as a key ingredient when cooking, especially in tomato-based sauces, marinades, and roasted vegetables.
