 Look for the classic ‘Greek’ and ‘Italian’ types, savory ‘Hot & Spicy’, and the ornamental ‘Golden’ and ‘Kent Beauty’ varieties. Oregano is an indispensable perennial, culinary herb that lends its strong flavor and aroma nicely to many Mediterranean dishes including fish, chicken, beef, pasta, mushrooms and tomatoes. Oregano can also be used in herbal teas and in an herb bath to sooth sore muscles. As an ornamental plant it possesses small white, edible flowers that are drought tolerant and easy to grow in containers as most herbs.
