Notes:

Slightly harder to start from seed than Origanum vulgaris but really not too complcated. Just make sure you keep the compost moist while the seedlings are young,

Probably the prettiest leaves of any Oregano and makes lovely ground cover. Hardy in most areas but protect if you're in a particularly exposed area prone to heavy frost.
