Perennial, Marjorana Hortensis

You may recognize Marjoram as a common herb in French cooking. While the Italians have their Oregano, the French prefer the sweeter Marjoram leaves.

Marjoram is a very close relative of Oregano, and is a member of the Mint family. It is native to North Africa and Southwest Asia. It thrives in dry, arid regions, and it grows two to four feet. In ancient Egyptian culture, Marjoram was a symbol of happiness.

Marjoram can be grown as a houseplant while still small. Place it in a sunny window. After your have enjoyed it all winter, plant it outdoors after all danger of frost. If you have limited space, try this herb in a container on your patio or deck.

Propagation:

Marjoram are grown from seed. Get an early start on this popular herb by starting it indoors as a houseplant. Or, directly sow seeds into your garden in the spring.

Sow seeds early in the season and cover lightly with soil. Space seedlings or thin plants to 12" apart, in rows 18 inches apart.

How to Grow Marjoram Plants:

Marjoram is easy to grow. They prefer full sun and a well drained soil. They will do well in average soils, and tolerate dry soil conditions. Being native to arid regions, Marjoram will withstand droughts very well. Water them during dry periods, once every week or two. Do not add fertilizer to this plant, and it will produce stronger flavor.

Pick flower bulbs as soon as they appear. The leaves turn bitter after flowers bloom.

Harvest leaves at any time after the plant has produced a few dozen leaves. Pick the young, tender leaves as they are best for flavor. Pick them in the morning when the oils are strongest. Spread leaves out to dry in a cool and ventilated area. Leaves can also be put in the freezer for later use.

Marjoram used in cooking for soups, stews,vegetables, stuffings, salads, cheese,  eggplant, and meats.

It has also been used in perfumes.
