Oregano – Italian Seeds | A Kitchen Staple Straight from Your Garden

There’s something special about plucking fresh oregano from the garden, rubbing it between your fingers, and taking in that rich, peppery aroma. The first time I grew Italian Oregano, I had no idea how much I’d use it—tossing it into pasta sauces, sprinkling it over homemade garlic bread, and even drying some for winter. Now, I can’t imagine my herb garden without it!

This resilient little herb is a dream to grow. It thrives in the Aussie sun, bounces back after a trim, and once it’s established, it pretty much takes care of itself. Whether you’ve got a sprawling backyard veggie patch or just a sunny windowsill, oregano will happily settle in.

How to Grow Oregano – Italian Seeds

• When to plant: Best in spring and autumn, but in warmer areas, it’ll grow year-round.
• Where to plant: Loves full sun, but it’ll tolerate a bit of shade. Well-draining soil is key.
• Sowing instructions:
  1. Sprinkle seeds lightly over the soil—no need to bury them deep!
  2. Keep the soil moist (not drenched), and expect little green shoots in 7–14 days.
  3. Once the seedlings are about the size of a 20-cent coin, thin them out to 20cm apart.
  4. Give it a regular trim to keep it bushy and full of flavour.

One thing I’ve noticed? The more you harvest, the better it grows! Snip a few sprigs for tonight’s dinner, and your plant will thank you with fresh new growth.
