Marjoram is a tender perennial herb, often grown as an annual in cooler climates, with small, oval, gray-green leaves and a sweet, aromatic scent. It forms a bushy mound and produces clusters of tiny white or pale pink flowers in mid to late summer. The flavor is warm, slightly citrusy, and more delicate than oregano, to which it is closely related. Marjoram is commonly used to season meats, sausages, soups, stews, and Mediterranean dishes, and is excellent in herb blends and dressings.
Varieties: Sweet Marjoram, (Origanum majorana), Wild Marjoram (Origanum vulgare), and Pot Marjoram (Origanum onites).
