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

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
