Botanical Name: Origanum x majoricum

Zone: 5-10

Soil: Well drained.

Exposure: Full Sun.

Bloom Time and Color: Lavender-white flowers all summer.

Description: Perennial. Grows tall, upright and productive, like Greek Oregano but has a flavor closer to sweet marjoram. Even when not topped with clusters of white-lavender blooms, this plant is attractive enough to take their place in your bed or border with other flowering plants. Pungently aromatic, Italian Oregano is one of the most important herbs of Italian, Greek and Mexican cooking.
