Marjoram
Origanum majorana
Marjoram is oreganos milder, smoother cousin. It is said to be more floral, fruity and delicate than oregano, though it can be used in the same way.
Harvest your Marjoram as needed throughout the growing season, but do not remove more than 1/3 of the foliage at a time. This ensures the plant has enough energy to keep growing.
Marjoram grows best in full sun with average, well-drained soil. Allow the top of the soil to dry out before watering again.
Seasonal Availability: Typically available April through June, depending on suppliers availability.

Let top 1-2" dry out before watering again.
If it is planted in a pot, it should have a drainage hole to reduce the likelihood of root rot caused by water accumulating in the bottom of the pot.
Increase watering in the heat of summer and watch for wilting or browning as signs to increase watering frequency.
