Add a distinctive touch to your garden with the Curry Plant (Helichrysum italicum), a delightfully fragrant perennial with silvery-grey, needle-like leaves that emits a characteristic curry-like aroma when brushed. During the summer, it produces little clusters of bright yellow blooms that attract pollinators, bringing beauty and biodiversity to your setting.Â
Â
Helichrysum italicum thrives in well-drained, sandy soil with full sun. It is drought-tolerant and low-maintenance, making it excellent for Mediterranean-style borders, rockeries, and container planting. Prune sparingly after flowering to preserve form and promote new growth. Combine with lavender, rosemary, or thyme to create a fragrant, drought-tolerant herb garden.
