Aromatic and strangely beautiful, Origanum dictamnus (Dittany of Crete) is a bushy sub-shrub forming a spreading mound of small, rounded, fuzzy silvery-white leaves. The leaves have a mild oregano flavor and may be used for seasoning soups, sauces, salads, roasts, vegetables and meats. In summer, it produces whorls of pendulous, pale green, hop-like bracts which mature to showy reddish-purple. Tiny, two-lipped, pink to purple flowers peek out of them. This plant has a long history as culinary and medicinal herb and is mentioned in Greek mythology.
O. dictamnus essential oil also showed considerable activity against yeasts and fungi. S. cerevisiae uvaferm NEM and A. niger 19111 were used as model systems in food spoilage (28, 29). Large inhibition zones were observed in both S. cerevisiae uvaferm NEM (inhibition zones of 40±0.7 and 35±0.5 for 5 and 7 cfu/mL initial inoculums, respectively) and A. niger 19111 (inhibition zones of 50±1, 40±0.5, and 15±0.4 for the first 3 days, respectively; the inhibition zones disappeared during incubation for longer time periods).
Origanum dictamnus, also known as dictamnus creticus, diktamo, erondas, hop marjoram, and winter sweet, is a small shrub found only in the rocky mountainous regions of the island of Crete in Greece. This little lanate shrub is easily identified by the soft, woolly coating of white-grey hair on its stems, round green leaves, and tiny rose-pink flowers surrounded by brighter purple-pink ones, adding a splash of color to the plant.

Germination usually takes place within 2 weeks. Prick out the seedlings into individual pots when they are large enough to handle and plant them out into their permanent positions in early summer. The seed can also be sown in situ in late spring.Division in early spring or early autumn. Very easy, larger divisions can be planted out direct into their permanent positions. We have found that it is better to pot up the smaller divisions and grow them on in light shade in a cold frame until they are well established before planting them out in late spring or early summer.Basal cuttings of young barren shoots in early summer. Very easy. Harvest the shoots with plenty of underground stem when they are about 8 - 10cm above the ground. Pot them up into individual pots and keep them in light shade in a cold frame or greenhouse until they are rooting well. Plant them out in the summer.Cite as: Temperate Plants Database, Ken Fern. temperate.theferns.info. 2023-04-02. function validate_form() {var user = document.forms["comments"]["user"].value;var email = document.forms["comments"]["email"].value;var body = document.forms["comments"]["body"].value;if (user == "" || user == null) {alert ("You must fill in all the fields when leaving a comment");return false;}if (email == "" || email == null) {alert ("You must fill in all the fields when leaving a comment");return false;}if (body == "" || body == null) {alert ("You must fill in all the fields when leaving a comment");return false;}var atpos = email.indexOf("@");var dotpos = email.lastIndexOf(".");if (atpos< 1 || dotpos=email.length) {alert("You have to enter a real email address.\nsorry about that.");return false;}if (body.length < 8) {alert ("Please give a meaningful comment :-( ");return false;}return true;}Add a Comment:If you have any useful information about this plant, please leave a comment.
