Italian Oregano is a cross of Oregano and Marjoram and has a mild flavor that blends well with other savory herbs like Basil and Tarragon.
Keep the soil around Italian oregano consistently moist until the plant's roots are established, at least for several weeks after planting. After that, water deeply but only when the soil in the ground or container is dry to the touch.
Cut back the stems of the oregano plant using pruning shears to a height of 2 or 3 inches about six weeks after planting. If the oregano plant is regrowing from the previous year, wait six to eight weeks after the plant's new growth begins in spring to prune it back.
Grow Italian oregano in a container right by your kitchen door for easy harvesting. Use the same type of loose, well-draining soil that oregano likes when planted outdoors. The container must have drainage and should be at least 12 inches around at the mouth to give the plant room to spread.
