Clitoria (single)

13 years ago

This is the single flower version, Inga. Clitoria ternatea or 'Blue pea' Tis a vigorous vine, in fact a weed in the tropic reagions. I pull up seedlings that come up every spring but always try to leave just one or two. Oddly enough, the hard black seeds encased in a 'pea' shaped envelope sometimes reguire soaking overnight to soften the hard black shell, and yet, as the seed pod breaks down over winter in the soil up they come as soon the soil warms in, well, early summer here.

PS taken a few years ago, excuse the 'ageing' hand.
