Syrian oregano is a beautiful species of oregano with silvery, downy leaves which have an aromatic oregano-thyme flavour. It's the authentic herb used in za'atar and a distinctive flavour in Levantine cuisine. Rarely grown in the UK, we find it grows really well from seed, happily adapting to life in a container or herb bed.
This is a perennial herb which you can expect a smaller harvest from in the first year. It will bulk out over the next few years. Cut back old growth in early spring to encourage new soft growth.
Sow: March - April (at around 18C)
Plant: 30cm apart in May
Kitchen: The it herb for Greek, Mexican and Italian dishes. Pairs with fats (eggs, yogurt, halloumi, soft cheese, parmesan), aromatics (basil, parsley, chives, mint, thyme), spicy (chili), acid (white wine, red wine vinegar)
Approx 45 seeds. We pack seeds by weight, the number of seeds in a packet is an estimate.
Germ Rate: 60% Jan 26
