Planting & Care

Start Italian oregano seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost or sow directly outdoors after the danger of frost has passed. Lightly press seeds into the soil surface; do not cover as they need light to germinate. Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Germination typically occurs in 7-14 days at 65-70°F. Once seedlings have two sets of true leaves, thin or transplant to 12-18 inches apart. Oregano thrives in full sun and well-drained soil. Water moderately, allowing the soil to dry slightly between waterings. Harvest leaves as needed once the plant is established, and trim flowers to encourage bushier growth.
