White Butterfly Pea Seeds (Clitoria ternatea): A Serene Addition to Your Garden

The White Butterfly Pea enchants gardeners with its pure white, trumpet-shaped flowers, offering a striking contrast against lush green foliage. Each pack contains seeds of this fast-growing vine, perfect for adding a touch of serenity and elegance to your outdoor space.

This variety thrives beautifully on trellises, arbors, or fences, showcasing its stunning blooms throughout the warm months. The slender green leaves enhance the pristine flowers, creating a picturesque display that attracts butterflies and hummingbirds, enriching the biodiversity of your garden.

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

Provide sturdy support for this climbing vine, as it enjoys vertical growth. Regular watering will help promote healthy development, but once established, the White Butterfly Pea is also drought-tolerant.
