Sweet Marjoram is a perennial herb closely related to oregano, however marjoram has a sweeter, more floral flavor. The herb prefers lower humidity and are drought tolerant, but avoid letting the soil dry out completely. Its flowers are highly attractive to bees and other pollinators. In areas with freezing temperatures, Marjoram can be potted and brought indoors for the winter. Its earthy flavor lends itself well to sauces, dressings, and is included in French herbes de provence and middle-eastern za'atar spice blends. Leaves retain their flavor when dried.
