Siri, What Does Oregano Look Like?

It's been awhile since I've shared some of the "siri searches" that come to this blog via key words and searches. I still get the gamut of "siri satanic", "siri antichrist", "siri police car", "siri porn", "siri legal", but this blog always seems to get a lot of hits asking, "Siri, what does oregano look like? Well......so sorry to disappoint, but it does not look anything like the illustration to the left. Oregano has small round leaves which grow in rows on long stems that cling to the ground. As a plant, it can overtake an herb garden within a couple of years. It's a very hardy herb. If allowed to go to seed, it has tiny, light purple flowers. It has a very pungent aroma, without which, spaghetti would be bland, and is an excellent source of folic acid. Below is a picture of some fresh oregano, and a sprig of the herb with flowers. Pictured with it are some jars of the best homegrown tomatos with which one could combine it. I have had a productive day!
