Curry Leaf Plant (Murraya koenigii)

The famed Curry Leaf plant, native to India and Sri Lanka, makes a wonderful potted plant for your culinary collection of aromatic herbs. The fragrant leaves have a nutty, pungent flavor and it’s a prized addition to South Indian foods being a main ingredient in delicious curries. Curry Leaf has an upright and open growth habit. The segmented foliage is borne on a compact bush making it convenient for harvesting. When harvesting leaves, it’s best to remove entire leaflets or cut back 3-4” of top leaf growth to encourage many side leaf shoots to develop, promoting a bushy growth habit. Small, white, fragrant flowers produce viable seeds inside the mature black fruits. Curry Leaf is easy-to-grow in a container, and it’s highly prized by both the gardener and the chef. Available in a 2.5" pot.
