Sweeter and milder than oregano. Frost-tender — grow as annual in cold climates. Harvest before flowering for best flavour.
Thymus vulgaris
herbA fellow Lamiaceae — similar growing habits to Marjoram
Start Marjoram indoors about 6 weeks before your last frost, keeping seeds in warm soil (around 20–25 °C). Seeds usually come up in around 14 days. Move seedlings out once the danger of frost has passed, in full sun, spaced about 30 cm apart. Expect to harvest in roughly 80 days.
Keep track of the seeds you own.
Water: Low · Height: 40 cm · Soil: Well-draining, light, slightly alkaline
These three thrive alongside Marjoram — and alongside each other.
