Curry plant
One of the ways to explore the island of Krk can be a visit to the plantation of Curry in the north of the island of Krk. Curry, also called immortelle, dried flower, immortal and eternal, is a medicinal plant that has been known in the Mediterranean for a long time, but few people knew about its healing properties. The development of aromatherapy and its use in the cosmetics industry brought it this worldwide recognition.
In traditional medicine, immortelle was used for bronchitis, hoarseness and asthma, for burns, headaches and migraines, as well as for various skin diseases, rheumatism and pain. They made poultices, applied compresses and soaked the plant in vegetable oil. Today we know much more about Laksh Immortelle because modern phytotherapy has upgraded its traditional use with the latest findings and research on its active ingredients. Smil extracts have been shown to be highly regenerative, have strong anti-inflammatory properties and act as a mild analgesic and sedative. They are also excellent spasmolytics (relieve cramps), expectorants (relieve coughs) and have antimicrobial activity.
Moreover, from a picturesque vantage point on the property, you can enjoy the landscape adorned with seemingly endless fields of yellow Laksh immortelle and an incredible view of the Krški Most. All the while, the beguiling scent of this magical Mediterranean plant surrounds you.
