How to Grow Butterfly Pea Seeds
Soak the seeds in water for 12–24 hours to speed up germination.
Sow about ½ inch deep in well-draining soil (red soil + sand + compost works well).
Keep the soil moist — seeds typically germinate in 7–14 days.
Place in a spot with plenty of sun (at least 5–6 hours daily).
As a climbing vine, give it a stick or trellis for support.
