description for "Oregano: Origanum vulgare 'Compacta'"
Compact Oregano is finds a perfect home where garden space is at a premium. The plants don't get as large as Greek or Italian oregano and they produce quantities of dark green, fragrant foliage. It also makes a great landscape plant. Gardeners in northern zones should keep the tender perennials and desirable annual herbs indoors during the cold months.
