Kadi Patta, Curry Leaves, Murraya koenigii is a most attractive, small evergreen tree with wonderfully sweet, curry-pungent foliage. Murraya koenigii well known for their aromatic and distinctive flavour and medicinal properties.
The curry leaf tree is an exotic plant to grow in the garden, with its lush green canopy and aromatic, fern-like foliage that brings a warm, spicy flavour to stir-fries and curry dishes. In spring and summer it displays clusters of fragrant white flowers followed by attractive shiny purple-black berries. The flesh of the berry is edible, too, but be aware that the seeds are toxic.
While you could grow the curry leaf tree for its culinary uses alone, it also makes a lovely screen, hedge or decorative potted plant on the patio and its compound leaves create textural interest in the garden.
