Butterfly pea flower, commonly grown for the flower which produces blue colouring or dye for food not so much for the pea pod and the all famous scientific name which is also used for the female private part due to the similarity of the design of the flower. This beautiful and useful flower can be grown anywhere and sometimes it takes over a huge area in the wild, creeping over fences and other man made objects. In order to grow this plant, dry the pod and get the seeds, it takes less than 3 months for it to mature and flower. They grow healthy and best grown with something for it to climb and creep on. This flower attracts a lot of tiny birds and bees, pick the flower once it starts to close and dry them in the hot sun if you want to produce some nice blue dye.
