They are about to flower like my other herbs have begun to do. Last year I waited a bit long and they made beautiful flower spikes which I didn't have the heart to cut down. So my oregano harvest was delayed until the fall after the flower spikes went to seed.
Today I'll be harvesting my oregano. I started out with a single oregano plant which my husband brought home from the grocery store. That small plant has now expanded to a patch about 60cm x 30cm (2ft x 1ft).
