This bushy, herbaceous plant, sometimes called wild oregano or wild marjoram, is a valued member of the mint family. Its aromatic leaves offer a milder flavor compared to the more pungent True Greek varieties, making it a versatile ingredient for Italian and Spanish cuisine, salads, stews, and egg or cheese dishes. Producing pretty pink to lavender flowers from midsummer to fall, the leaves can be used fresh or dried, and are rich in essential oils and antioxidants.
