Gardeners Dream Dark/Green Oregano Common - 8Cm Pot

Gardeners Dream

Common Oregano is a robust culinary herb cultivated primarily for the pungent, earthy flavour found in its small, dark green leaves. This bold taste, which carries spicy notes of pepper and camphor, is often more potent when the leaves are dried than when they are fresh. It is traditionally used as the backbone of Mediterranean cooking, essential for flavouring pizza sauces, Greek salads, and hearty pasta dishes where it adds a deep, savoury warmth. This plant is typically grown as a hardy, bushy perennial that forms a low mound of foliage which can become woody at the base. It is tough and cold-tolerant, capable of surviving winter outdoors provided the ground is not waterlogged. For the best results and the most concentrated essential oils, plant it in a location with full, baking sun. It is highly drought-tolerant once established and thrives in poor, alkaline, or gritty soil, as it will lose flavour and struggle in damp, overly fertile conditions. Please Note: When purchasing plants please consider that each live item is unique and may therefore differ from the images shown, which are for illustration purposes only - The plant will be supplied in a growers pot.
