A bold oregano with a spicy kick and strong essential oils.
Culinary use: Excellent for pizzas, tomato sauces, grilled meats, and marinades. A little goes a long way!
Lighting: Needs full sun for best flavour and compact growth.

Not a true coriander, but a popular herb in Southeast Asian cuisine.
Culinary use: Common in Vietnamese soups, salads, and curries. Offers a peppery, citrusy coriander-like flavour that holds up in hot dishes.
