Popis: Satureja Montana L. is an underrated, but very valuable species with multiple uses appreciated especially for its anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antifungal and antioxidant properties. At VRDS Buzau was obtained a new genotype of winter savory with high content in volatile oils, minerals and with a yield potential of over 4.802 kg/plant after five years of cultivation. The content in volatile oils was determined using gas chromatography and the main component of the volatile oils were: thymol (83.04%), carvacrol (4.46%), o-cymene (4.21%) and other 13 components, in smaller percentages. The plant is perennial and can be grown for over 20 years.
