Curry Leaf Plant Produces Flowers
Back on July 17, I wrote up a description of the curry leaf plant and mentioned that it produces tiny white flowers. At that time, I only had a picture of the plant with leaves. Here in August, I can share with you a picture of the tiny white flowers that the plant produces. Later, we will try to capture pictures of the seeds. Although the flowers are modest, they do add a nice touch to the plant whose leaves alone do make this a potentially decorative patio plant.
As a reminder, these are the fresh leaves are an ingredient in many Indian dishes and is quite different from the western bay leaves.
Aloha, DoT
