We hope that this guide will be a starting point for studies dedicated to the of savory and that you will develop an understanding and appreciation of what we, the editors, deem to be an knowledge, use underutilized herb in our modern times. and delight of In starting to put this guide together we first had to ask ourselves what it would cover. Unlike dill, herbs through horseradish, or rosemary, savory is not one distinct species. It is a general term that covers mainly the educational genus Satureja, but as time and botanists have fractured the many plants that have been called programs, savories, the title now refers to multiple genera. As research and some of the most important savories still belong to the genus Satureja our main focus will be on those plants, sharing the but we will also include some of their close cousins. The more the merrier! experience of its Savories are very historical plants and have long been utilized in their native regions of southern members with the Europe, western Asia, and parts of North America. It community. is our hope that all members of The Herb Society of America who don't already grow and use savories will grow at least one of them in the year 2015 and try cooking with it.

Currently, their importance is more highlighted due to their increasing demand for food, cosmetics and pharmaceutical industries. Recent scientific literature revealed the antimicrobial, antifungal and antioxidant potential of essential oils. In view of the multiple applications of essential oils, their characterization based on their chemical profiles, is of great importance [1].

Observations on their use and efficacy significantly contribute to the disclosure of their therapeutic properties. Calamintha nepeta (L.) Savi is an aromatic herb with a mint-oregano flavor, used in the Mediterranean areas as a traditional medicine. It has an extensive range of biological activities, including antimicrobial, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory, as well as anti-ulcer and insecticidal properties. This study aims to review the scientific findings and research reported to date on Calamintha nepeta (L.) Savi that prove many of the remarkable various biological actions, effects and some uses of this species as a source of bioactive natural compounds. On the other hand, pulegone, the major chemical constituent of Calamintha nepeta (L.) Savi essential oil, has been reported to exhibit numerous bioactivities in cells and animals. Thus, this integrated overview also surveys and interprets the present knowledge of chemistry and analysis of this oxygenated monoterpene, as well as its beneficial bioactivities.

(Lamiaceae) was used in the traditional Bulgarian medicine for treatment of wounds, Clinopodium vulgare L. diabetes and gastric ulcers. In this study we aimed at safety assessment of C. vulgare lyophilized water extract Toxicity (CVE) characterized by ultra high-performance liquid chromatography–Orbitrap high resolution mass spectro- UHPLC-HRMS profiling metry (UHPLC-HRMS). The acute and sub-acute toxicity of CVE was determined in two rodent species (mice and Caffeic acid oligomers rats), and two routes of administration – intraperitoneal (i.p.) and oral (p.o.). LD50 (i.p.), were found to be 675 mg/kg (mice) and 500 mg/kg (rats). An acute i. p. administration resulted in central nervous system toxic effects. 50LD (p.o.) was higher than 2000 mg/kg for both species. In sub-acute oral administration, CVE did not exert any toxic effect on hematology, blood and urine biochemistry, and histomorphology in pancreas, liver, spleen and kidney.

  • Common Name: ASHE's SAVORY Scientific Name: Calamintha Ashei
    Common Name: ASHE’S SAVORY Scientific Name: Calamintha ashei (Weatherby) Shinners Other Commonly Used Names: Ohoopee wild basil, Ashe’s calamint, Ashe’s wild savory Previously Used Scientific Names: Clinopodium ashei (Weatherby) Small, Satureja ashei Weatherby Family: Lamiaceae/Labiatae (mint) Rarity Ranks: G3/S2 State Legal Status: Threatened Federal Legal Status: none Federal Wetland Status: none Description: Compact, evergreen shrub less than 20 inches (50 cm) tall with peeling, gray bark and many stiff, erect, slightly 4-angled branches. Leaves 1/4 - 1/2 inch (0.5 - 1 cm) long, in opposite clusters, gray-green, covered with fine hairs and tiny glistening glands; edges tightly inrolled. Flower 1/2 inch (1 cm) long, tubular with a nearly erect upper lip and a spreading, 3- lobed lower lip; pale pink to lavender-blue with purple dots on the lower lip. All parts of the plant smell strongly of basil. Similar Species: Scarlet wild basil (Calamintha coccinea) also grows in the Ohoopee Dunes. It is a taller shrub (20 - 30 inches/50 - 76 cm tall) with a straggly growth form, nearly hairless leaves, and tubular, red or yellow flowers. Related Rare Species: See Radford’s mint (Dicerandra radfordiana) on this website. Habitat: Scrub on sand dunes along the Ohoopee River, with scarlet wild basil, woody goldenrod, and sandhill rosemary (see account on this website). Life History: Ashe’s savory is an evergreen shrub, flowering throughout the growing season. Flowers of Calamintha are pollinated by bees, their lower lips providing a sturdy landing platform for this large insect. Ashe’s savory often grows in otherwise unvegetated patches of sand, releasing allelopathic compounds that prevent germination of other species’ seeds, thus reducing competition in their vicinity.

Cane Linda Kervin Research Entomologist, USDA ARS Logan, UT Pollinating Insect-Biology, Management, Systematics Research Do You Know? • 900 species of native bees reside in Utah. • Some wild bees are superb pollinators of Utah’s tree fruits, raspberries, squashes, melons and cucumbers. • Few of our native bees have much venom or any inclination to sting. • Our native bees use hundreds of varieties of garden flowers, many of them water-wise. • A garden plant need not be native to attract and feed native bees. tah is home to more than 20 percent Uof the 4,000+ named species of wild Fig. 1. Carder bee (Anthidium) foraging at lavender (Lavendula: Lamiaceae).1 bees that are native to North America. Except for bumblebees and some sweat bees, our native bees are solitary, not so- cial, many with just one annual generation that coincides with bloom by their favorite floral hosts. In contrast, the familiar honey- bee is highly social, has perennial colonies, and was brought to North America by settlers from Europe. Regardless of these differences, however, all of our bees need pollen and nectar from flowers. The sugars in sweet nectar power their flight; mother bees also imbibe some nectar to mix with pollen that they gather. Pollen is fortified with proteins, oils and minerals that are es- sential for the diets of their grub-like larvae back at the nest. Our flower gardens can become valuable cafeterias for local populations of diverse native bees.

  • PP83. Essential Oils of Calamintha Nepeta, Origanum Vulgare and Thymus Mastichina from Alentejo (Portugal): a Pharmacological Approach
    FACTA UNIVERSITATIS Series: Physics, Chemistry and Technology Vol. 16, No 1, Special Issue, 2018, p. 147 49th International Symposium on Essential Oils (ISEO2018) Book of Abstracts PP83. Essential oils of Calamintha nepeta, Origanum vulgare and Thymus mastichina from Alentejo (Portugal): a pharmacological approach Sílvia Macedo Arantes1,2*, Andreia Piçarra1, Marisa Guerreiro1, Cátia Salvador1, Fátima Candeias2,3, A. Teresa Caldeira1,3, M. Rosário Martins1,2,3 Keywords: essential oils, Calamintha nepeta (L.) Savi subsp. nepeta, Origanum vulgare L., Thymus mastichina L. subsp. mastichina, biological properties Alentejo, in the south of Portugal, is rich in endemic aromatic plants, that are used as condiments and food additives by the local population. Aromatic plants and their essential oils (EOs) have an important role in the protection against oxidative stress, often associated with some diseases, such as atherosclerosis, neurodegenerative and autoimmune diseases, and cancer [1]. The aim of this study was to evaluate the antioxidant, antimicrobial and antiproliferative activities of EOs of autochthones Calamintha nepeta (L.) Savi (syn. Clinopodium nepeta (L.) Kuntze), Origanum vulgare L., and Thymus mastichina L. EOs were extracted from the aerial part of the plants by hydrodistillation and the chemical composition was analyzed by GC-FID and GC-MS [2]. Antioxidant potential of the oils was evaluated by three different assays: DPPH radical, β-carotene/linoleic acid and reducing power methods [2]. Antimicrobial activity of the oils was evaluated by a solid disk diffusion assay and minimal inhibitory concentrations (MIC) were determined by a microdilution broth method [2]. Toxicity of the EOs was screened by the brine shrimp lethality test (LC50) and the oral lethal doses (DL50) were determined for mice [2].
