Greek Oregano Seeds - Herbal Plant

Greek oregano seeds produce a perennial herb with a compact, bushy growth habit and small, aromatic green leaves. This variety is well suited for herb gardens, borders, and container cultivation, where it establishes steadily and maintains dense growth. It thrives in full sun and adapts to a range of well-drained soils, including sandy and moderately low-fertility conditions. Greek oregano performs well in warm and temperate climates and shows good tolerance to dry conditions once established.
