Satureja montana – Satureja montana

The following description concerns Satureja montana generally. Satureja montana is a low, woody-based perennial with aromatic leaves. It differs from the annual summer savory, Satureja hortensis, by retaining a persistent framework. Sunny conditions and well-drained soil suit it; prolonged wetness is less suitable. This life-cycle distinction helps separate the two savories in an herb-seed assortment.
