Marjoram 'Gold Splash' 9cm
Oregano 'Gold Splash', also known as wild marjoram, is a highly fragrant herb with gold-splashed green leaves that are especially stunning in spring. While it is primarily grown for culinary purposes, this variety also serves as an attractive foliage plant that can form a spreading mound perfect for the front of a border in your herb garden, herbaceous border, rock or gravel garden, or even in a container.
Originating from the Mediterranean and Southern Europe, this low-growing herb reaches a height of about 30cm and prefers light, well-drained soil. It boasts bright green leaves and pink flowers. For optimal growth, Gold Splash prefers a sunny location and well-drained soil. If your soil is particularly heavy, you can add some grit when planting to help with drainage. Although it is hardy in nature, it does not thrive in prolonged wet winters. It can remain evergreen throughout the winter season or form a bushy compact plant again in spring.
