We will mail you 2 Curry Leaf Tree / Plant about 21 cm to 27 cm high in a 50 mm x 50 mm wide x 120 mm deep tube (shown in picture 2) which will be carefully well packaged to avoid damage during transit. Depending on the season, plants may be larger or smaller than pictured.

Upon receiving, unpack them and keep them in the same tube for a minimum of 6 weeks before being transplanted. This is to ensure that the plants can become acclimatized to its new environments before transplanting to a larger pot or in the garden ground. Keep the plants in the shaded area for the first 2 to 3 weeks before slowly bring them out to full sun. While they are in the tubes, preferably water them with seaweed solution to protect them from transplanting shock and give them some slow-release fertilizer. Use the seaweed solution and fertilizer according to its specific instructions. Try to keep the plants in the tube until it adjusts to its new environments and sun hardened, then they can be transplanted directly into the garden ground or larger pots.

Before digging out the trees from the tubes, try to dig out the soil which is around the roots as much as possible to ensure it forms a layer of coverage around the roots to reduce transplanting shock. That is digging out the trees and the soil around their roots together. Once they are transplanted to a bigger pot or to the garden ground, If the soil looks dry, then give them some water to ensure the soil is moist but not wet. Make sure to keep the newly planted Curry leaf plant hydrated without over-watering it and in a shaded area for a few weeks.

 Water them for about 2 to 4 days during summer, weekly during spring and fall, 3 to 4 weeks during winter. Maintain plants in the late autumn and winter for new growth in the spring. Prune young plants to promote new growth. Harvest leaves when they are a suitable size. They are an evergreen plant, but the growth will slow down in the winter. 

DO NOT OVER FERTILISE CURRY PLANTS AS THIS WILL BURN THEIR ROOTS AND MAY LEAD TO TREE DYING. READ THE FERTILISER INSTRUCTION BEFORE APPLYING FERTILISER TO THE PLANTS. 

The trees sucker vigorously so if space is limited growing in a pot is a good option. They grow well in a pot and make an attractive plant for a veranda or outdoor area. They can grow under direct sunlight as they are heat tolerant or partial shade.
