Dittany is gathered while in bloom, that is to say from May until August, although you find some dittany blooming as late as in December. It was a risky job gathering dittany, because the gatherers, who in Greek are called mazochtádes, erondádes or atitanológi, would often hang from the sheer, sharp rocks.
