Sweet marjoram "Marietta" /100 g/
Origanum majorana L.
Sweet marjoram "Marietta" - Majorana hortensis (Origanum majorana).
The joy and pride of the gardener!
An annual, highly branched subshrub. All parts of the plant have a pleasant spicy aroma and taste. Good honey plant.
Contains essential oil and tannins. Young shoots with leaves and inflorescences are used both fresh and dried in cooking and canning.
Meat and vegetable dishes, homemade sausages and sauces with marjoram are not only tastier but also better digestible. Grown on light, nutrient-rich soils. Marjoram is thermophilic, at early stages of development it is sensitive to frosts.
In the south, it is grown in open ground, in the middle lane and in northern regions - through seedlings. In the latter case, the seeds are sown in early April (0.1 g per 200 plants). Marjoram seeds are very small, they do not require embedding and it is enough to roll them. Seedlings appear on the 20-23rd day. Seedlings are planted in the ground after the end of frost, according to the scheme 20ґ by 25 cm. Care consists in loosening row spacing and weeding.
Marjoram is harvested before flowering. The plant is cut about 6 cm from the ground, then it shoots again, and a second rich harvest is ready by autumn.
Harvesting begins during the flowering period, cutting off shoots at a height of 5-6 cm from the ground.
Dried plants can be stored in closed containers for several years without losing their beneficial properties.
1.0 g = 2000-4000 seeds.
