Curry herb (Helichrysum italicum) in P9 pot

Curry herb is an aromatic, evergreen shrub with narrow, gray-green leaves and a strong, warm curry aroma. It's ideal for use in stews, sauces, marinades, or as a seasoning in Mediterranean cuisine. In summer, the plant blooms with small, golden-yellow flowers that are also attractive to bees and other beneficial insects.

The compact plant grows to about 40–60 cm tall and is easy to care for and hardy in mild climates.

Plant in a sunny spot in well-drained, rather poor soil. Avoid wet feet and prune lightly in spring to encourage compact, healthy growth. Regularly harvesting stems promotes new growth and aroma.

Organic/non-organic
This planting material comes from a small-scale grower without an official organic certificate. But don't worry, we're certain it's pesticide-free.

Stronger plants, honest photos
Our plants are grown outdoors and are completely winter-hardy. They aren't young greenhouse plants, but stronger, perennials that have been growing for a while and therefore have a well-developed root system. By growing in wind, rain, and temperature fluctuations, they are better hardened, more robust, and adapt more quickly after planting than herbs grown in a warm greenhouse this year. Conservatory plants often look greener and fuller, but are younger and less resilient.

Because our plants follow the natural rhythm of the seasons, they can look bare or less attractive in winter. Many perennials die back (partially) above ground and store their energy underground. Sometimes the pot may seem empty, but don't worry: the strong roots are alive and will ensure the plant sprouts vigorously again in spring.

The photos show what the plants look like in winter, so you get a fair idea of ​​what you'll receive if you order in the spring.
