Sweet Marjoram (Origanum majorana) is one of the most beloved culinary herbs of the Mediterranean — a member of the mint family and a close relative of oregano, but with a sweeter, more delicate, and more complex flavor that makes it a staple of Middle Eastern, Italian, and French cuisine. The aromatic sage-green leaves are used fresh or dried in soups, stews, sausages, roasted meats, and egg dishes. Knotted pink-to-white flower buds add ornamental charm to the garden and are also edible. Plants grow compact and bushy, producing abundant aromatic foliage through the season. 70 days.
A tender perennial in warmer regions (zones 9+); grown as an annual in northern climates.
Start indoors 6–8 weeks before last frost. Surface sow — seeds need light to germinate. Transplant outdoors after frost danger has passed, spacing plants 8–10 inches apart in full sun with well-draining soil. Water consistently but avoid overwatering. Harvest leaves regularly to encourage bushy growth. Cut back after flowering to promote fresh foliage. Perennial in zones 9+; grow as annual in colder climates.

The seeds arrived around the estimated time of arrival. They were well packaged and looked good. I planted a few 3 days ago and I've already got sprouts.
I hope these flowers will grow in North Dakota! The colors are vibrant and hopefully the bees will like them. I will have to wait until after the Big Thaw in April before I can plant them - can't wait!
