Marjorum Compact

Marjoram Compact is a neat dwarf form of Pot Marjoram, with dark green leaves and pink flowers in summer.

Enjoys being in pots and gardens for easy reach, to make the most of the textures, fragrance and flavours.

A perennial herb from the Lamiaceae family which is native to the Mediterranean. Marjoram has smooth, slightly hairy, even leaves which are usually a rich green in colour and are very aromatic. The leaves have a subtle, sweet flavour similar to Oregano but often softer and less spicy. Marjoram has many culinary uses from flavouring meat and fish dishes to making a herbal tea and is used widely in Greek and Italian cuisines. The leaves are usually added towards the end of cooking a dish as heating them for too long will cook the flavour away.
