Blue White Butterfly Pea Seeds (Clitoria ternatea): A Striking Bicolor Vine for Your Garden

The Blue White Butterfly Pea (Clitoria ternatea) is a captivating variety that enchants gardeners with its stunning bicolored blooms of rich blue and pure white. Each pack contains seeds of this elegant vine, perfect for adding a touch of sophistication to trellises, arbors, or fences in your garden.

This fast-growing vine features slender green leaves that create a beautiful contrast against its eye-catching flowers. The Blue White Butterfly Pea blooms throughout the warm months, attracting butterflies and hummingbirds, making it both a visual and ecological delight for any garden.

Sow seeds directly in the garden after the last frost or start indoors 6-8 weeks beforehand. Soaking seeds overnight can enhance germination. Space seeds 12-18 inches apart to allow for ample growth.

Provide sturdy support for this climbing vine, as it will twine around trellises or other structures with ease. Regular watering promotes healthy growth, but this resilient plant is also drought-tolerant once established.
