Savory, Summer
Satureja hortensis
Annual.
Sow seeds directly into the ground 1/8" deep or just scatter on top of the soil. Prefers full sun and average soil. Thin to 10" apart in rows 16-18" apart. Successive sowings may be made in the spring until mid-summer. Summer savory germinates quickly, and often self-seeds. Does not transplant well. Cut as soon as the plants get about 6" tall and before flowering. Hang in bundles upside down in an airy place. When dry, remove leaves from the stems. Store in airtight containers.
