With its strong aroma and flavor, oregano is one of the most important herbs in Italian, Greek, and Mexican cooking. Although it's wonderful fresh, oregano is usually used dry, its flavor proving bold enough to stand up to those of tomato, onion, garlic, and beef. Oregano is a bushy perennial with attractive purple-brown stems and broad leaves that often show a flush of red. Branched clusters of purple-pink blooms arise all summer, adding more beauty to this versatile, easy-to-grow herb. And for all-natural flavor, try our organic oregano.
