Fragrant, finely textured leaves offer a warm, peppery flavour that can be used fresh or dried. Summer savory is excellent for flavouring dressings, gravies, and sauces, or added fresh to salads for a bright, herbal note.
Mature Height: 12–18 in

Suitable Planting Locations: Ideal for herb gardens, containers, raised beds, and garden borders in full sun with well-drained soil.
Planting Tip: Most herbs prefer a sunny location with well-drained soil that is not too wet. Aim to plant where herbs receive at least 5 hours of direct sunlight each day. Herbs grow well in most soils but thrive in light, sandy soil enriched with peat moss or leaf mold and a moderate amount of fertilizer.
