Origanum rotundifolium

This entry was posted while I was on vacation, hence the brief written accompaniment. -- Daniel

This oregano is not strongly scented (at least compared to other species), but it has a visual ornamental appeal with its dainty flowers and orbiculate leaves and bracts (it's a recipient of the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit).
