General - Marjoram is a low bushy perennial up to 2 ft. high with hairy stems, dark green oval leaves and small grayish white flowers. The name derives from the Greek ‘joy of the mountains’. Marjoram Essential Oil comes from Egypt, and is steamed distilled from the herb. The leaves are separated from the stems by being beaten with staves; they are discolored by the sun, broken and mixed with the debris of stems of which the odor is less strong.
