Marshall, I don't have an answer to your question, but this seems like a
good time to pose a question that I'd been meaning to post in
triangle.dining: in the local groceries (and in El Mandado supermarket,
detailed in my tri.dining post), I see oregano in bulk -- not bulk as in
measure-your-own, but much larger quantities than in the usual container.

My question: is Mexican oregano interchangeable with the usual dried stuff
(most of which ends up on pizza in my house, anyway)?

Hi,

This year I'm going to try growing a Mexican herb garden to complement
the tomatoes and tomatillos I use in preparing homemade Mexican dishes.
I've found sources for cilantro and epazote, but I have some questions
about Mexican Oregano (lippia graveolens):

1.) Have any of you grown it in the triangle area? If so, how well does it
grow
in our area?

2.) Where can I find seed/plants? A local source is preferred.

Thanks!
