Origanum vulgare "Jim Best Reversed" - GROUNDCOVERING OREGANO "JIM BEST REVERSED"

We got this groundcovering and densely spreading oregano last year and then realized it has lost it's variegated leaves...The true 'Jim Best' cultivar has irregularly yellow-splashed leaves.

Despite that we decided to propagate it as "Jim Best Reversed", because we value the compact, dense groundcovering growth.
