Planting Instructions: Start seeds indoors 6–8 weeks before last frost or direct sow outdoors in late fall for natural spring germination. Sow seeds on the soil surface and press lightly—do not cover, as light can aid germination. Keep soil evenly moist and in a warm, bright location. Seeds typically germinate in 10–14 days.
Harden off seedlings before transplanting outdoors after frost. Space plants 25–30 cm apart in full sun with well-drained soil. Oregano is hardy and drought-tolerant once established.
