Curry Plant
Curry Plant
Helichrysum angustifolium

Curry Plant - This lovely grey foliage plant has a strong, sweet, curry scent, when grown in warm sun, but do not use in cooking, as the taste is quite bitter. It produces tall tufts of golden flowers suitable for drying. Put dry leaves among woolens to repel moths or use in spice based potpourri. The delicate silver foliage, resembling that of rosemary, makes it welcome in the grey garden.

Curry Plant
Dwarf Curry Plant
Helichrysum angustifolium

The Dwarf Curry Plant is a smaller, attractive version of curry plant, with tiny, fragrant heather-like foliage. This is not to be confused with the cooking spice, which is a combination of herbs such as coriander, cumin and cardamon. Use dry leaves in spice based potpourri.
