    My Butterfly Pea vine. Botanical name of this plant is Clitoria Ternatea. But it's also known by other names like Asian Pigeonwings, Bluebellvine, Blue Pea, Cordofan Pea, and Darwin Pea.

    Ok, I looked that up !! It will grow in my climate zone, fixes nitrogen in the soil, you can make a tea from it and eat the peas when the pods are small. Plus, I love blue flowers !! :)

    Thanks for posting your blue pea @S-H :like:

    I got a Double-flowered blue pea on order yesterday. I found it on Etsy from a seller in Hawaii. Five seeds for $2. free shipping in the US.
