Ordered Tuesday at 8 PM, delivered Wednesday by 9:30 AM. Plant was healthy, tall (about 16 inches), came in the charcoal pot exactly as shown. The packaging was thoughtful — wood shavings, tied stems, no soil spill. Two weeks in and it's already pushed out a new leaf.
I have killed every plant I have ever owned. Got this for the bedroom. Watered it once in 6 weeks. Still alive, still growing. The team also responded on WhatsApp within an hour when I asked if it was getting too much sun. Not paid to say this.
Plant itself is gorgeous and very healthy. Only minor gripe — I expected the medium size to be taller, but it's closer to 14 inches than 18. Still very happy with it. The Khurja ceramic pot is honestly the best part.

The Curry Patta plant (Murraya Koenigii) is a tropical evergreen shrub native to India and other parts of Asia. Belonging to the Rutaceae family, this plant is celebrated for its aromatic leaves that are fundamental to Indian cuisine. The plant features dark green, pinnate leaves with 11-22 leaflets, creating a lush, bushy appearance. At 1.5Ft in height, this specimen is perfect for both container gardening and in-ground planting, making it versatile for various home settings. In India, it's more than just a plant; it's a household essential that connects generations through traditional cooking practices.
The Curry Patta plant thrives in bright, direct sunlight and requires at least 5-6 hours of sun daily for optimal growth. It's best placed in an outdoor location like a balcony, terrace, or garden area where it can receive ample sunlight. However, during the peak of summer, especially in regions with scorching heat, it's advisable to protect the plant from the harsh afternoon sun to prevent leaf scorch. This plant is well-suited for Indian climatic conditions and can tolerate the intense summer sun when gradually acclimatized.
Watering your Curry Patta plant is straightforward and forgiving. Water the plant thoroughly as soon as the topsoil appears dry. A simple finger test—inserting your finger into the soil up to the first knuckle—can help determine moisture levels. Avoid overwatering, as this can lead to root rot. The plant prefers well-draining soil and doesn't require high humidity, making it ideal for most Indian homes. During the monsoon season, ensure proper drainage to prevent waterlogging, which can be detrimental to the plant's health.
