Oregano thrives on the dry side, so let the soil dry out well between waterings and never leave it wet. The best flavour comes from a hot, dry spot.

Once established this plant rarely needs watering. Alerts are worth acting on mainly in a long dry spell or in its first year.

A sun loving Mediterranean herb with a warm, peppery flavour, wonderful dried.
