Drought Tolerant - Once established

A striking evergreen shrub, Origanum dictamnus is prized for both its ornamental charm and hardiness. This dome-forming perennial features branching stems covered in rounded, felted mid-green leaves that add soft texture to the garden year-round.

In summer it puts on a captivating display of small, funnel-shaped pink flowers, delicately arranged in panicle-like whorls. These blooms are beautifully complemented by showy, hop-like purple bracts, creating a unique and eye-catching contrast.

Ideal for rock gardens, containers or the front of sunny borders, this drought-tolerant oregano thrives in well-drained soil and full sun. Hardy and evergreen in most NZ climates.
