Perennial marjoram is a native of Europe, but has become nat- uralized in many cool and even cold temperate clim- ates. It is often found wild in the Atlantic states in the borders of woods. The general name origa- num, meaning delight of the mountain, is derived from two Greek words, or OS, mountain; and ganos, joy, some of the species being found commonly upon mountain sides. Un- der cultivation it has developed a few varieties the most popular of which are a variegated form used for ornamental purposes, and a dwarf variety noted for its ability to come true to seed. Both varieties are used in cookery. The perennial species seems to have had the longer association with civilization; at least it is the one identified in the writings of Pliny, Albertus Magnus and the English herbalists of the middle ages. Annual marjoram is thought to be the species considered sacred in India to Vishnu and Siva. Sweet Marjoram
