Oregano (Greek) Seeds

$22.50

Oregano is a popular herb that is commonly used in Mediterranean and Mexican cuisine. Greek oregano, in particular, is highly prized for its intense, slightly bitter flavor and pungent aroma. Its small, oval-shaped leaves are often used fresh or dried to add depth and complexity to tomato-based sauces, meats, vegetables, and salads.

Like many herbs, oregano has a long history of medicinal use, and is believed to have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. It has been used to treat a variety of ailments, from digestive issues to respiratory infections. Oregano is also a hardy plant that is easy to grow from seeds, making it a great choice for home gardeners who want to add fresh flavor to their meals. Its attractive purple flowers also make it a popular choice for garden borders and container gardens.

More Information

Sow and grow indoors for all year round crops. Sow 0.5cm (¼”) deep, in small pots of compost. Water well and place in a warm position. A temperature of 15-20°C (60-68°F) is ideal. Seedlings usually appear in 14-21 days. Grow on in cooler, but not cold conditions. For earlier outdoor crops, sow indoors March-May. Gradually accustom plants to outside conditions (avoid frosts), before planting out into warm, well-drained soil, 20cm (8″) apart, during May-June. Alternatively, plants can be grown on a light windowsill. Or sow outdoors April-May for ease, where they are to crop, 0.5cm (¼”) deep, directly into finely-prepared, warm, well-drained soil, which has already been watered. Thin seedlings to 20cm (8″) apart. Harvest: Pick the fresh leaves and tender shoots as required (outdoor plants from June). Oregano can also be dried and stores well.
