In this informal gardening tutorial, Nicole Johnsey Burke and her mother Kydell address the problem of oregano spreading uncontrollably in a garden. Nicole explains that she prefers oregano to grow outward, away from other valuable plants, to keep garden space usable. She demonstrates a pruning method: using pruners (or a knife) to cut along a defined line, then pulling the entire oregano clump—including roots—out of the soil. This complete removal prevents the herb from reestablishing and allows the garden to remain dedicated to other important plants. Nicole emphasizes that, even after removal, there will still be ample oregano to share with the neighborhood.
