Okrasné oregano Kent Beauty je nepřehlédnutelná bylinka, která do zahrad přináší středomořskou eleganci a nádhernou vůni. Původně tento druh pochází ze slunných a skalnatých svahů východního Středomoří, kde přirozeně roste v suchých a chudých půdách. Jde o mimořádně nenáročnou trvalku, která spolehlivě odolává mrazům. Skvěle se uplatní ve skalkách, suchých zídkách nebo na okrajích propustných stepních záhonů, kam přináší lehkost a jemnou strukturu. Během léta od července do září tvoří převislé kaskády nápadných listnatých listenů, ze kterých vykukují drobné růžové květy. Tyto květy fungují jako neodolatelné lákadlo pro včely, motýly a další opylovače. Přestože je odrůda Kent Beauty primárně pěstována pro svůj výjimečný vzhled, její zelené lístky jsou plně jedlé a nesou typické kořenité aroma. Nádherně vypadá nejen na záhonu, ale výborně se hodí i k sušení. Pokud celé stonky ustřihnete v plném květu a zavěsíte na stinné a vzdušné místo, udrží si svůj zajímavý tvar a stanou se originálním prvkem floristických vazeb. Pro úspěšné pěstování vám dodáme krásně prokořeněnou sazenici, kterou stačí vysadit na plné slunce do vzdálenosti třicet centimetrů od dalších rostlin.
