Italian Oregano

$9.00

Italian Oregano is a multi-faceted plant that brings so many benefits to our garden. It is a herb and can help with many ailments, it is also a spice and can be dried or used fresh for seasonings. We love to add fresh finely chopped oregano to salads. Majority of people don’t realize that Italian oregano produces a foot long flower spike mid-summer with many tiny flowers that smell a mix of oregano and honey-lemon. Flowers attract a tremendous number of butterflies and other insects. Oregano is one of the best plants to have for a pollinator friendly garden. Italian Oregano grows big, bushy, and beautiful. It doesn’t run out of control like mint and it’s easy to maintain it. Give it good soil and you’ll be rewarded with an automatic abundance of health and beauty.


Spring orders are all fulfilled! Thank you for a phenomenal spring!

The next window of opportunity to plant would be the coming fall.

You can pre-order plants for fall planting anytime.

We’ll be shipping plants around November when they’ll become dormant. The way that it’ll work is that if you pre-order plants right now, we’ll take the payment and we’ll reserve plants for you for the fall shipping. As soon as our plants are asleep for the winter, you’ll be receiving them to be transplanted in to their new home.
