HEALTHY PLANTS:
Possibly one of the most recognized herbs in the cook's garden, oregano is easy to grow and is very flavorful. It is excellent when used fresh from the plant or dried for long-term storage.
GROWTH:
Oregano is an aggressive plant that likes to spread and a bush of oregano can grow quite large if you allow it. The stems can also grow up to 2 feet high and will often lay down on the ground.
CARE:
Oregano grows very well in partial sun, water thoroughly only after the soil is dry to the touch. Oregano may need some winter protection in USDA Hardiness zones 5 and lower.
FUN FACT:
Beekeepers purposefully plant oregano near apiaries because it adds a wonderful flavor to honey made by oregano-eating bees.

The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) has devised a system to provide gardeners with a basic guide to plant hardiness – how much winter cold a plant can withstand. The Hardiness Zone Map system divides the United States and Canada into numbered zones based on lowest average winter temperature. Even within a zone, different micro-climates exist, such as large urban areas which may be warmer or land situated at different elevations.
