Has anyone ever tried growing Curry Leaves (not Curry Plant)? You quite often see them being used on TV shows or find them in recipes. I've googled a bit and have found that they grow as a tree in Asia but can be grown as a shrub in this country.

Anyone know anything?

Before you criticise someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes.
That way, when you criticise them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

They're available fresh all year round at two market stalls close by, so I've never thought of growing them. But Kew Gardens have some advice!

It's wonderful to think they could be grown on the windowsill - tempted to give it a shot, thank you for the suggestion rutters :)

The plants (for cuttings) from an Asian grocer with a high sales turnover (for freshness). You could check the day they receive deliveries?
