Greek Oregano (also known as regani) is a staple in Mediterranean cooking. Greek Oregano thrives easily in containers, as it doesn't prefer humidity and appreciates a drier climate. If grown in the ground, this will behave like a ground cover.
Oregano is best utilized for culinary uses, it's an absolute must if you are cooking Italian cuisine. Greek Oregano is used to flavor sauces, pizzas, pasta, and egg dishes. It also has medical potential and is commonly mixed into tea blends as well.
