Going to try some Greek oregano from seed this Fall or early Spring. I don’t read about it much here on FR and I never grew it before. Any suggestions?

I think it is probably pretty easy to grow, just follow the directions on the package. I really don’t care for it that much, and usually substitute something else like basil. We don’t eat a lot of Italian dishes. I do have a jar of Italian seasoning that I use sometimes and a tiny bottle of Oregano that oldest daughter uses when she is here.

It's pretty much the same as regular oregano. Oregano is one of the few herbs that I prefer to use dried instead of fresh. I use some fresh out of the herb garden, but most of it gets dried. Thyme, on the other hand.. I always want fresh.

Oregano is easy from seed. The seeds are tiny; just press them into the soil. Keep moist until they germinate. If you grow them in a place they like, with sun and good drainage, the oregano plants will come back year after year.
