Origanum microphyllum
Cretan Oregano
This newly imported Cretan endemic makes a wiry shrub some 30cm tall by 40cm across. The tiny aromatic leaves are blue-green and are held on stiff stems which carry heads of rich purple flowers during summer. A fabulous little plant for a hot dry sunny, well drained spot in the garden. The Cretans make a drink out of this plant called andonaida.
