Growing Requirements for Butterfly Peas

Unfortunately, Butterfly Pea plants are only hardy in USDA zones 10-11, but because they are such fast growers they are often grown as an annual plant in colder regions.
Butterfly Peas prefer to be grown in full sun but they will tolerate light shade.
These are very drought tolerant plants, but they should be watered regularly for the best results.
Never over water Butterfly Peas!
Pinch regularly to induce bushiness.
Butterfly Pea seed pods are edible and tasty.


Growing Butterfly Pea Vines from Seed

The seeds of the Butterfly Pea should be nicked or filed, then soaked overnight in room temperature water before planting.
They can be sown directly in the garden with 3-4 inch spacing when the soil warms in the spring.
Start seeds indoors 12 weeks before the warm weather arrives, maintaining a temperature within the growing medium of 70°-75° F.
Germination takes 15-20 days.
