Description

Clitoria ternatea, commonly known as Asian pigeonwingsbluebellvineblue peabutterfly peacordofan pea and Darwin peais a plant species belonging to the family Fabaceae. It is a perennial herbaceous plant, with elliptic, obtuse leaves. It grows as a vine or creeper, doing well in moist, neutral soil. The most striking feature about this plant is the color of its flowers, a vivid deep blue; solitary, with light yellow markings. They are about 4 cm long by 3 cm wide.

It is grown as an ornamental plant and as a revegetation species requiring little care when cultivated. As a legume, its roots form a symbiotic association with soil bacteria known as rhizobia, which transform atmospheric N2 into a plant-usable form (a process called nitrogen fixing), therefore, this plant is also used to improve soil quality through the decomposition of nitrogen rich plant material.
