Greek Oregano is widely regarded as having the most delicious taste of all the other varieties of oregano. The growth habit and leaf size might vary, but the height is typically between 50 and 60 centimetres. Nonetheless, the plant stems can get somewhat woody, and the leaves, which are oval and dark green and sometimes fuzzy, are arranged in opposing pairs. The flower stalks are spiny and can have many colours, including pink, white, and purple. The most common uses for it in Greek cookery are to make flavourful sauces and to season meats, fish, and vegetables.
Oregano can thrive in almost any environment; you do not require a garden to cultivate it. May be planted in containers outside on the patio or indoors on a windowsill.

Very attractive to bees and butterflies.
