Satureja montana
Savory has a tangy, marjoram-like flavour and is the herb for cooking with beans. Winter savory is a small growing, perennial variety, with the strongest flavour. It is also a very useful medicinal plant with digestive, antiseptic and anti-nausea properties. It is reputedly good for bronchial and menstrual disorders, and can also be rubbed on bee and wasp stings. It makes an attractive low bush for borders, e.g. around a herb garden, and forms good ground cover if planted approx 30cm apart. Said to be a good companion for the vege garden, warding off pests and attracting bees. Prefers a hot, dry spot, poor soil, and is drought tolerant. Will not tolerate wet feet in winter. Height 25cm.
9cm pot.

Jo has a passion for growing herbs but is not a qualified herbalist and has no medical background.
We are lucky to have Patricia Beagle working here at times, who is qualified, and some of her advice does appear on these pages, but herbs act differently for different people and can interact with other medicines. We therefore always recommend that you consult with your own qualified health-care practitioner before using herbal products, particularly if you are pregnant, nursing or on any medications.
