💚🌱Oregano is another wonderful herb to grow in our gardens. It is low maintenance and grows well in a container. Besides for its culinary uses because of its robust flavor and scent, Oregano contains a powerful antioxidant that may support immune health. It is also known to have anti-inflammatory, anti-fungal, antiviral and antibacterial properties. (Make sure to do your own due diligence before consuming any herbs for medicinal purposes.)
Oregano makes a great companion plant to all garden crops! It grows in light, well drained and moderately fertile soil, so it does not need additional compost or fertilizer. Grows best in a sunny location, but will do fine in part sun. The best time to harvest herbs is right before they flower when they contain the most essential oils making them more fragrant and flavorful!
