[[Oregano]] (''[[Origanum vulgare]]''), sometimes listed with marjoram as ''O. majorana'', is also called wild marjoram. It is a perennial common in [[southern Europe]] and north to Sweden in dry copses and on hedge-banks, with many stout stems {{convert|30|-|80|cm}} high, bearing short-stalked, somewhat ovate leaves and clusters of purple flowers. It has a stronger flavor than marjoram.

Pot marjoram or Cretan oregano (''[[Origanum onites|O. onites]]'') has similar uses to marjoram.

Hardy marjoram or French/{{wbr}}Italian/{{wbr}}Sicilian marjoram (''[[Origanum × majoricum|O. × majoricum]]''), a cross of marjoram with oregano, is much more resistant to cold, but is slightly less sweet.<ref>{{cite web |title=Origanum majoricum Cambess. |url=https://www.gbif.org/species/3894423 |website=www.gbif.org |language=en}}</ref>
