Genuine Livingston® seeds — imported from the USA. Bred and selected in the United States and packed for The Garden by Chanan Din, Lahore. Non-GMO. Every lot is germination-tested here before it goes on sale.
Grow your own oregano — the common Mediterranean kind, milder and sweeter than Greek oregano, with small soft leaves that dry particularly well. The herb for tomato sauce, pizza and roast vegetables, and a spreading perennial that fills a pot within a season.
We stock this variety from more than one American seed house. This listing is the Livingston® packet; the Ferry-Morse® version is listed separately.
Growing guide & FAQs
Growing guide for Pakistan
- When to sow: September to November, or February to March, in the plains. It establishes best in mild weather.
- Sowing: Very fine seed. Scatter thinly on the surface of a free-draining mix, press down and barely cover. Keep it just moist — thyme seedlings rot far more easily than they dry out.
- Soil: Poor, gritty, sharply drained ground. Rich soil and heavy manure give you soft growth and weak flavour. This is a herb that rewards neglect.
- Water: Sparingly once established. Let the surface dry between waterings — overwatering kills more thyme in Pakistan than heat ever does.
- Position: Full sun. It takes the summer heat happily once its roots are down.
- Harvest: Snip sprigs as needed, never more than a third of the plant at a time. Trim lightly after flowering to stop it going woody in the middle.
Frequently asked questions
Will this grow in a pot?
Yes. A 20–25 cm pot in full sun with free-draining compost. Poor soil gives stronger flavour than rich soil does.
How many seeds are in the packet?
Enough for a home garden bed or a run of pots. Sow a few more than you need and keep the strongest seedlings.
Is the seed non-GMO?
Yes. Every variety in this range is non-GMO.
Do you deliver outside Lahore?
