Curry Plant

My co-worker is raising a curry plant in a small pot at our work place.The curry plant is a herb which is used for cooking and it has a strong smell of curry.I heard only a leaf of the herb will make any curry tasting food.Normaly,curry powder is made up of twenty or more kinds of spices and herbs.Isn't it amazing?I am looking forward to smelling and tasting the curry plant when it grows up.
