Clitoria ternatea L., commonly known as Butterfly Pea or Blue Pea, is a fast-growing, flowering vine prized for its striking deep blue (sometimes white) blooms and a wide range of uses. Grown from high-quality local seeds, this hardy tropical plant thrives in warm climates with full sun and well-drained soil. In addition to its ornamental beauty—perfect for trellises, fences, and vertical gardens—Butterfly Pea is widely used in traditional medicine and as a natural food coloring or herbal tea. The flowers are rich in antioxidants and known for their vivid color-changing properties when mixed with acidic ingredients like lemon. Easy to grow and beneficial for pollinators, Clitoria ternatea is both beautiful and functional in home gardens or sustainable landscapes.
