Plant in any well-drained soil in full sun to bright partial shade; Cuban oregano tolerates heat, humidity, and dry spells far better than Mediterranean oregano. The thick, succulent leaves have a pungent, oregano-like aroma intensified by thyme — use fresh in Caribbean, Indian, and Southeast Asian cooking. Remove flower spikes to keep the plant in vigorous vegetative growth; take a few cuttings before the first frost if growing as an annual.
