Marjoram

I started with two 6" started plants of Marjoram from Iwasaki Bros. I planted them each in their own medium-sized terra-cotta pot in full sun. Marjoram is very aromatic, can be used for medicinal purposes and has lovely white or pink flowers. (right) This is my Marjoram right after transplant on June 15th.

Growing Tips: Marjoram prefers full sun and should be planted 6" - 8" apart or in its own container. Grows to be about 12" - 24" tall. Trim back after flowering.

Harvesting: Marjoram can be harvested throughout the growing season or grown indoors for year-round herbs. Best to harvest before flowering.
