I uncovered four oregano plants from last year which were wintered under straw. I clipped off all the dead stems. They are already greening up and loving the sunshine. I cover all my plants for winter with straw, and based on the other photo it’s obvious why.

hotwired's Herb: Oregano Care Instructions
If you would like to sow this plant directly, try 0.12 inches (0.32 cm) deep with a guideline distance of 11.7 inches (30.0 cm).
Ensure you have enough space in your garden for this plant - Oregano is known for growing to a height of approximately 76.0 cm (that's 2.47 feet in imperial).
Your garden has full sun light which is ideal for Oregano.
Try to apply water fairly sparingly.
Your garden's USDA Hardiness Zone (5b) is within the ideal range for Oregano. The recommended range is between Zone 4 and 10.
Try to keep the ph of your soil between the range of 6.0 and 8.0 as Oregano likes to be in acidic to alkaline soil.
