Oregano

10 years ago

Quick question I planted both basil and oregano about a month ago and the basil is fine but the oregano has barely grown any. I know they grow/germinate at different rates but they still look like little itty bitty plants. Is it normal for oregano to grow this slow?

Oregano is a perennial sub shrub while basil is a fast growing annual. They will naturally grow at different speed because of their different life spans. I wouldn't worry.
