This plant is an AROMATIC HERB! It is not a CULINARY HERB!
The Curry Plant is not where the Curry Seasoning comes from - true curry is a blend of many different herbs, and the seasoning is different depending upon the region. Our Curry Plant does SMELL like curry though!
This
aromatic herb has delightful, curry-scented foliage, and is among
herb plants grown for its smell. It is NOT a culinary herb, but used in
herb gardening as both an ornamental herb and an aromatic herb. Curry seasoning is actually a blend of many different herbs. Curry is grown for it's fragrance and beauty. The essential oil of curry is used to flavor confections and perfumes. Curry looks very similar to lavender in its leaf state. Once in bloom, its yellow flowers can grow up to 2 feet.
It works equally as well in a
container on the patio, or mixed in with other annuals and herbs.
