Placed Outdoors

Description:

Savory, with its peppery flavor somewhat resembling that of thyme, is one of the oldest known herbs. Dry Savory leaves can be stored for a long time in jars. 

Culinary Tip:

It is used as a condiment to flavor stuffing, stews, sauces, salads and vegetables.

Culture Tip:

1. Sowing: Sow Mar to Apr in pots or planters and tamp the soil. 
2. Thinning: At 4-5 leaf stage, thin the smaller seedlings and keep only the strongest. You can grow savory directly in your garden in full sun.

3. Harvest: Harvest the leaves and young shoots from June to October. Prune the branches to 10 cm from the ground to keep it compact. 

Companion Plants:

Savory likes the proximity of beans because it protects them from aphids and they are harvested at the same time.
