Growing Sweet Marjoram, also Knotted marjoram

View the Sweet Marjoram page

My sweet marjoram did not show knots as I'm accustomed to when I had it in another garden. Instead, it showed long (2cm) flower heads. I like the knots which are very pungent and wonderful in salads. Could the plant have been too well nourished? The leaves aren't really grey-green, just green, and not at all strong in taste.
