Helichrysum italicum Details

Helichrysum italicum, commonly known as the Curry Plant, is known for its distinctive curry smell, colourful foliage, and pretty flowers. The foliage is silver-grey with a soft looking appearance and becomes adorned with clusters of yellow flowers atop slender stems in summer. The flowers complement the foliage perfectly. It typically grows to 60 cm tall and 1 m wide, performing best when planted in full sun or partial shade on a well-drained site. It is tolerant of dry periods, coastal environments, and light frost. Helichrysum italicum is commonly included cottage gardens, planted around outdoor living areas such as pools and the like, or mass planted as a groundcover on a bank. This is a rewarding plant that looks amazing when allowed to spill out across a path.
