Seeds of Aparajita Plant, Blue Flower (Multi petal)

Scientific Name- clitoria ternatea

10 seeds of  this plant will be sent. You have to soak the seed in water (preferably mixed with fungicide) for 24-36 hours, so that seeds may germinate earlier with good germination rate. For growing seeds, you can use media (60 garden soil, 20% vermicompost, 20% cocopeat). Grow the seeds in shady area with indirect sunlight. Within a week, you will observe germination. After a month growth, you can shift your saplings gradually to more direct sunlight. If you expose your saplings to direct sunlight of full day at once, your saplings may die. Hence slowly increase sunlight exposure.

This is fast growing plant and blooms white, blue, purple, pink, sky blue flowers (as per variety).  This variety will bloom blue coloured multi petal flowers. This is grown as climber plant and can expand very fast on any hedge as well. If you wish to make it grow in a dense form (like a bush) with various branches, keep on pruning accordingly. It's a long life plant.

We can also grow this plant in balcony with direct sunlight of 04 hours. You will observe maximum blooming with more sunlight availability. The plant performs best in big size containers (10 inch or more) or plant them on ground.

Watering & Sunlight:   This plant is almost maintenance free. Even without fertilisers, this plant will show satisfactory growth. However, use of vermi-compost shows faster growth and more blooming. Even with low level of atmospheric humidity (20%) and high temperature (upto 45⁰ C), this plant continues to grow healthily. We should water it whenever soil has become fully dry. Drainage in pot is necessary by making sufficient holes in bottom. 

Soil:     To make the ideal potting mix, 20 % drainage media (river sand/ Leca/ Perlite/ Pumice or rice husk- use any one of them) in potting mix should be available. In rest of the potting mix, we should mix vermi compost (20 %) and sterilised garden soil (75%). Use of Neem Cake (5%) will improve quality of potting mix.
