Oregano in the Herb Garden
Oregano is sending out new leaves now. I gave some divisions away last year, and the picture is my main clump for 2009. It will spread and grow to be 18 inches or so tall, and if I let it bloom it will go to seed and self-sow a nice area. A bit of my oregano bed was lost due to the fence rehab work we did.
I dry oregano for storage, and I also use it fresh in tomato sauces when I can them in the summer. It’s great mixed with other favorite herbs in a dried blend, which I use in all kinds of dishes as well as in herb bread recipes and herbed pizza dough.
