Marjoram Pot

​
(Origanum onites)

Perennial, 2 feet. Useful for indoor decoration, for the
flowers, after cutting, last quite three weeks in water.
Propagate by division of roots, preferably in autumn.
Although propagation can be done successfully in 
spring, the plants, which make a shallow, mat-like
root growth, are likely to fail in the long spring droughts
we frequently get. Plant out 18 inches apart. Succeeds
in any soil, but full sun is essential.

Marjoram Majorana

​
(Origanum majorana)

Perennial, 1 foot, but best treated as a half-hardy annual. 
Sow the seed towards the end of May,
preferably on light soil and in full sun. Thin to 4 inches
apart.

Marjoram (Origanum majorana) is an aromatic herb in the mint family which originated in Egypt and Arabia. It is also widely referred to as Oregano. Today, it is commonly found in the Mediterranean region or grown in gardens around the world. In its varied forms of: marjoram essential oil, fresh or dried marjoram leaves, or marjoram powder (ground up marjoram), it has many uses. As a culinary additive, it is commonly used to flavor soups, sauces, salads, and meat dishes. Cosmetically, marjoram is used in skin cream, body lotion, shaving gel, and bath soaps. Whether used as an essential oil, powder, fresh leaves, or dried leaves, marjoram has many uses with numerous health benefits. Marjoram synonyms are: majorana hortensis, moench and majorana.
