Re: Oregano

You know, I wonder if this is really going to be a problem.  Is it because
the roots would get in the way of other crops as they grow side-by-side?
I've grown oregano with my tomatoes and they seems to coexist beautifully.
Perhaps it's being in zone 5 or 6 or wherever I am (depends on the map I
use).  :)

Even though it can be invasive to a certain degree, who can't use oregano?
Is there really such a thing as too much, or have I just been really lucky?
Just wondering.  This thread has me curious to see what others have experienced
with this wonderful herb (in relation to the invasiveness).
