Origanum x hybrida ‘Kirigami’

Origanum x hybrida 'Kirigami' is a stunning ornamental oregano prized for its unique, colorful bracts and aromatic foliage. Blooming from mid-summer through early fall, 'Kirigami' showcases clusters of purple to pink flowers surrounded by ornamental purple-green bracts, which deepen in color as the season progresses. The contrast between the delicate blooms and the richly hued bracts creates a striking visual display that makes this plant a favorite for hanging baskets, containers, and borders.

This hybrid oregano was specifically bred for ornamental purposes, blending beauty with the classic fragrance of oregano. Although it shares the aromatic qualities of its culinary relatives, 'Kirigami' is primarily grown for its aesthetic appeal rather than its use in cooking. Its cascading growth habit and vibrant flowers make it a standout in the garden, adding texture, color, and fragrance to a variety of settings.
