Winter Savory is a perennial, low growing plant that can be grown from seeds or cuttings. It is short—just 4 to 6 inches—and spreading. It is lovely, deep green color and works well as a nice border plant. It is a sturdy little plant that does well in this area. The flavor is a little like a cross between oregano and thyme. It prefers sun to part shade but will need protection from direct August sun.
Winter savory is most often used in soups where it will lend beef broth a sumptuous flavor. There is a summer savory but it is an annual and it does not grow well in this climate.
