Thanks in advance for any info, especially an internet reference O. X majoricum is a hybrid between origano (O. vulgare) and sweet marjoram (O. majorana). The x (an alternative for a multiplication sign) denotes that it is a nothospecies (hybrid species). Google is your friend. -- Stewart Robert Hinsley |

Do happen to know if "sweet marjoram" is the same as "Italian Oregano"
Also, what is the spice sold, sweet marjoram or O. X majoricum These are the type of questions the Internet rises. Thanks again "Stewart Robert Hinsley" wrote in message ...

Sweet marjoram is not the same as Italian or Greek oregano.
To make things more confusing: What most of us call Italian or Green oregano really *is* oregano. There is also a Mexican oregano, which is a different plant in a different family.
