How wonderful to have it grow fresh. Dead oregano is still wonderful in spice jars though!

BJ, I planted some from seeds years and years ago. It was called oregano or wild marjoram. I really like it in Italian dishes like spaghetti. I was speaking about the fact that I had gone out and got some fresh, placed leftovers in a jar in water on the window sill but I got sick with COVID and the water dried up so did the plants. Sara

Lasaad, I can still get some from the herb garden but soon it will be put to sleep for the winter. Thanks for stopping by. I appreciate every visit. Sara

Autumn is coming Sara. PS. That's how we pronounce it in the uk. Enjoy your weekend. Tom

Tom, I picked some oregano for a dish and I had too much so I placed it in the glass of water on the window sill then I got sick. Of course, no water, no life. It died. Thanks for dropping by. Sara
