Oregano
Oregano ( or ; ; scientific name ''Origanum vulgare'') is a common species of ''Origanum'', a genus of the mint family (Lamiaceae). It is native to warm-temperate western and southwestern Eurasia and the Mediterranean region.
Oregano is a perennial herb, growing from 20–80 cm tall, with opposite leaves 1–4 cm long. Oregano will grow in a pH range between 6.0 (mildly acidic) and 9.0 (strongly alkaline) with a preferred range between 6.0 and 8.0. The flowers are purple, 3–4 mm long, produced in erect spikes. It is sometimes called wild marjoram, and its close relative ''O. majorana'' is known as sweet marjoram.
==Description and biology==
Oregano is related to the herb marjoram, sometimes being referred to as wild marjoram. Oregano has purple flowers and spade-shaped, olive-green leaves. It is a perennial,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Origanum vulgare L. oregano )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Growing Culinary Herbs In Ontario )〕 although it is grown as an annual in colder climates, as it often does not survive the winter.
Oregano is planted in early spring, the plants being spaced apart in fairly dry soil, with full sun. It prefers a hot, relatively dry climate, but will do well in other environments.
