Curry Leaf

Curry Tree (Murraya koenigii), the scientific name translates to "curry patta," indicating its integral uses in indian food and culture. 

Curry Leaf trees are Angiosperms!

For generations, my family has kept curry leaf plants in our homes, mainly using them for cooking. We still have my grandmother's curry leaf plant, and it has been alive for 50+ years. Curry leaves are integral to indian food, giving it a distinct and delicious addition to the flavor of many dishes. 

Curry leaf is native to South Asia, but is able to be grown indoors in the U.S. When grown outdoors, it thrives in tropical and sub-tropical areas.
