:: What Is Marjoram? Belonging to the mint family, marjoram is a popular herb. It is also known by other common names like knotted marjoram, pot marjoram, wild oregano, sweet marjoram, and garden marjoram. Although marjoram is closely related to oregano, yet both the herbs are different. Marjoram carries a sweeter and lighter taste than commercial oregano. Native to Cyprus, it is also found in Asia, Europe, America, and Africa. The perennial, cold-sensitive and aromatic marjoram generally grows up to a height of around 60 to 75 cm. It grows on footpaths, rocky places, field margins, and dry slopes. However, it generally requires well-drained, dry fertile loamy soil for its proper growth. Marjoram plants have straight, hairy stems with smooth, grey colored leaves. The plant features tiny, white to pink color flowers. |
