Make sure you are talking about the same thing. Curry leaves are Murraya koneigii, Curry plant is Helichrysum italicum. The latter has a sort of cumin type smell. I'm not sure you could cook with it. It has small grey leaves, quite tightly packed. The former has small (but bigger if you get me drift) green leaves. Curry plant can easily be grown here and is often in garden centres. I think, like momol, you might have to import your curry leaf plant.
