Oregano in a Zone 7 season

Zone 7 gives about 202 frost-free days. Oregano needs roughly 90 days from transplant. That leaves about 112 days of slack, so there is room for a late start or a second planting.

How to grow oregano

Start seeds indoors about 6 weeks before planting out, or buy a transplant. A spreading, hardy perennial: the flavor deepens in full sun. Trim it back after flowering to keep fresh growth coming.
