Kirigami Oregano Plants

This fragrant but non-edible variety of oregano has sculptural cascading hop-shaped blooms that are a pale green to blush color. Low growing, it looks great in the foreground of the garden.

A beautifully colored ground cover plant that looks best where it can drape over the edge of a garden or container.

Includes three young plants, grown in 2.5" diameter pots

Growing Info

How to Plant	Dig a hole twice the size of the root ball. Fill a little bit of the loose dirt back into the hole and tuck your plant in so the base of the stem is even with the top of the hole. Now fill in the rest of the soil around the roots, give the soft ground around the base of your new plant friend a few solid pats to compress the soil onto the roots, and a long, gentle drink of water
Where to Plant	Find a place that gets a decent amount of sun, in well draining soil
When to Plant	Plant outside in the spring, After your last frost. Avoid the heat of the day when planting — plant in the early morning, late afternoon, or by the light of the moon
When to Expect Blooms	We're here for the foliage. Tiny pink flowers may appear mid-summer
Care Instructions	Water regularly until established, then give it an extra drink during dry spells
Extra Credit	A good choice for rock gardens, slopes, and containers
