Winter Savory plant

Winter savory is a hardy, perennial herb known for its peppery, slightly spicy flavor, often used in cooking to season meats, beans, and stews. It grows as a low, bushy shrub, reaching about 12-18 inches tall, with small, dark green leaves and delicate white or pale lilac flowers in summer. Thriving in full sun and well-drained soil, it’s drought-tolerant and ideal for herb gardens, rock gardens, or container planting. Winter savory deters pests, attracts pollinators, and is resistant to deer. Regular pruning encourages bushy growth, and it remains productive year-round, making it a great cold-hardy culinary herb.
