Origanum marjorana

Marjoram is the sister to oregano and is indispensable in Mediterranean cooking. It can be used fresh or dried and is often enjoyed in meats, poultry, cheese dishes, soups, dressings, and salads.

The leaves are velvety green and oval-shaped with a spicy aroma. The plant is cold-sensitive, so you will need to harvest your winter’s requirements before the first frost cuts it back.
