Growing the Herb Oregano. Oregano needs only a moderately fertile soil to thrive in, though drainage and friability are important. Plant outdoors 12 inches apart after all danger of frost has passed. Plants are easily started from seed, stem cuttings, or mature root division.
If you want your Oregano to continue growing more leaves, then yes, you have to pinch off the flowers. The plant 'thinks' it must produce seeds for whatever reason, and after the flowers come, the plant will stop growing. This will also, as you've said, make it into a bushier plant, just like Basil and many others. I'm seeding herbs this week, including Oregano. It's a treat to be able to do that in autumn here.
